DESCRIPTION: Ms. Karen Seals of the Dublin Substance Abuse
Council and Chairperson for the Red Ribbon Week committee, has
discussed with Police Services and City staff, City participation
in the Red Ribbon Week campaign beginning October 18, 1990. The

fee and waive two weeks of promotional sign display for
individual businesses that:
a. Obtain promotional sign permits.
b Include "Red Ribbon Week" in the signage, and
c. Display the signage within the two week period
between October 18 and November 1, 1990.

red ribbon week during Red Ribbon week.
4. Allow Dublin 4-H to decorate the sports grounds with
red ribbons.
The following are Staff's recommended responses to the requests:
1. The Dublin sign regulations would not consider the
student's work to be a "business sign" . Dublin
businesses may_ display the student's work in business
windows or elsewhere on the business site.
2. The City Council has the authority to grant the request
to waive the processing fee and waive two weeks of sign
display. The City has contributed funding to the Red
Ribbon Week campaign as part of the approved budget.
The action required would be similar to the action
taken in the previous year's Red Ribbon Week.
The processing fee for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
for 60-day promotional signs is $130.00. For an
Administrative Conditional Use Permit (ACUP) for
30-days temporary promotional sign, the processig fee
is $25. 00.
3 . The City maintenance staff can arrange to have red
ribbons placed along the medians and a banner placed
across San Ramon Road. This will help control the
placement and the work alternative program could be
utilized to perform this work.
