The Moraga Planning Commission conducted a study session with the community March 17 regarding the town's sign ordinance. The Chamber of Commerce was present, as well as diverse business owners who want to be able to increase their visibility within the boundary of the rules. By law, the town cannot regulate signs by content but only by zoning district, type and temporality.
More public input is needed.
Additional study sessions are tentatively scheduled for April 14 and April 23. The April 14 study session would be a joint meeting with the Design Review Board and the Planning Commission. The April 23 study session would be with the Town Council. "Our intent is to bring the sign ordinance back to the Planning Commission for hearing in May," said Ella Samonsky, associate planner.
