Garden City has scheduled a public hearing on Wednesday, March 17th, 2010, at 6:30 P.M. at Garden City Hall to hear public opinion on the latest draft of the sign code. Please mark your calendars and plan on attending so you can speak out.
Please see an article I wrote after attending the last work session with P&Z regarding what, in my opinion, still needs work.

Case in point in Burger King and McDonalds studies in this web article. Signs’ Values Can Be Calculated | SignWeb | signweb.com
