Thirty speakers spoke on the proposed ordinance and expressed concerns regarding:
(1) digitally printed images being permitted as murals;
(2) the registration fee for new murals;
(3) the registration fee for existing murals;
(4) the 100 foot height limitation, and;
(5) the mural ban on residential buildings with fewer than five units.”
