The <br /> proposed amendment to the Zoning Code will provide for increased wayfinding for tourist and economic <br /> activity by allowing signage at the top of buildings in the downtown, Central Business District(CBD). Current <br /> regulations require signage to be at the street level oriented towards the immediate area,and not on upper <br /> floors of buildings. The proposed amendment would provide flexibility for signage to act as a wayfinding tool <br /> for uses like hotels. Also,the amendment will add new definitions for façade and halo lighting. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> r6,COP1EN1rT IOi (Exact action requested of Council): Adopt an Ordinance <br /> TQilcnc,Amending Ordinance No. <br /> 1671-S9 (i ML stle 19), as amended, with a Nev,, Subsection to be added Lo 7-one,7-one, for i i-1 e Story <br /> WallSir WageAmending g OtherRelated Sections_ i�1n g Code. <br /> �1�1__�� and:�_1_le_1 tiles 1'1g1��1c�_ the �,__1IlV <br /> 19 <br />
