ARKANSAS KIT WILLIAMS, CITY ATTORNEY DAVID WHITAKER, ASST. CITY ATTORNEY DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE LEGAL DEPARTMENT TO: Dan Coody, Mayor City Council THRU: Jeremy Pate, Director of Current Planning FROM: Kit Williams, City Attorney DATE : February 14, 2006 RE: "Company Flag" "Windblown signs" are prohibited by our Sign Ordinance with the exception of "company flag." Although "company flag" is defined, this definition does not expressly state that the flag must be in the same dimensional format of the Stars and Stripes, Arkansas State Flag, etc. A recent businessman believed his windblown sign should be considered a "company flag." To avoid any such confusion in the future, I believe the definition of "company flag" should be made more explicit. It should also be limited in size to what we normally see when "Old Glory" or the Arkansas State Flag are displayed. I do not think anyone would like to see giant "company flags" the size of the American Flag at the Fayetteville Auto Park. I am not even certain why the "company flag" exception to windblown signs was inserted into the Sign Ordinance. However, the new definition of "company flag" should ensure this exception will not adversely affect the aesthetic rationale of the Sign Ordinance.
