Manager Willis stated that the City wis contacted by a local
sign ctm pany with respect to courtesy or bus benches. The

site benchez along routes served 5y Plymouth Metrolink and
Medicine Lake Lines. Most, it not all existing benches are in
the right-of-way and no pertotts have been issued. Since
courtesy benches are not addressed by the Zoning ordinance, they
are not allowed, onless they are defined as advertising signs,
In which case they ara allowed only in I-1 and B-3 districts.

Inopportune place to loiter and a potential hazard.
