RECOMMENDED ACTION:
That the City Council ADOPT Resolution No. 2003-202 APPROVING an Amendment to
City Council Policy No. 65, Signs on Public Property and ADOPT Resolution No.
AUTHORIZING the Mayor to execute an agreement between the City of Carlsbad and Motivational
Systems, Inc. to design, install, maintain and lease space on the City’s Kiosk Signs.
2003-203 ,
ITEM EXP LANATl ON:
Pursuant to a recommendation of a Citizens Committee to Study the City’s Comprehensive Sign
Ordinance (2001), the Carlsbad City Council directed that the design of the City’s Subdivision Kiosk
Signs be updated. The new updated kiosk sign design should include more contemporary colors
and illustration that better reflects the image of Carlsbad as a “seaside community.”
Wooden kiosk signs are currently located at major intersections throughout the City. The existing
kiosk signs are freestanding structures, not exceeding 10 feet in height and 6 feet in width, which
are constructed of dark brown wood with routed-in white lettering. Each kiosk sign has the words
”City of Carlsbad,” displayed on the top panel of the sign. Located below this top panel are brown
wooden plaques with similar white lettering identifying the name of major subdivisions within the City
with directional arrows pointing toward their location.
The current kiosk sign design was approved in 1984 and the signs have been in effect since 1985.
This sign program has been an effective medium for providing off-site identification for and
directions to a variety of new major residential subdivisions. The sign program has also functioned
to reduce the existence of illegal off-site subdivision signs within Carlsbad.
SunCal Outdoor Adveriising, the sign consultant currently under contract with the City to install and
maintain the City’s kiosk signs, has satisfactorily administered (i.e., construction, maintenance,
repair, leasing of sign space and billing) the Subdivision Kiosk Sign Program since its inception.
Accordingly, the contractual agreement with SunCal has continued on a year-to-year basis.
However, pursuant to Chapter 3.28 (Purchasing) of the Carlsbad Municipal Code, as part of this
effort to update the kiosk sign design, staff was required to solicit competitive bids for updating the
kiosk sign design and administering the Subdivision Kiosk Sign Program.
Request for Proposals to update the kiosk sign design and administer the City’s Kiosk Sign Program
were sent to five (5) consulting firms, two (2) of which submitted formal proposals to the Planning
Department. The Planning Department conducted a thorough review of the two proposals including:
I) kiosk sign design, 2) costs and revenue sharing arrangement, 3) responsiveness to
specifications, 4) references, applicable experience and reputation, 5) implementation schedule, and
6) ability to provide service.
After reviewing the two proposals, staff recommends that Motivational Systems, Inc. (MSI) be hired
to design, install, maintain and administer the leasing of space on the City’s Subdivision Kiosk
Signs. Compared to the City’s existing Subdivision Kiosk Sign contract agreement, the MSI
proposal and agreement includes several added City benefits including:
I
17,256 PAGE 2 OF AGENDA BILL NO.
0 MSI will allocate 8 hours each Saturday and Sunday for the removal of illegal weekend
directional signs and;
0 City monthly revenues per single face and double face sign panel are increased from $20 to
$40 and $30 to $40 respectively without increasing monthly rental panel rates to the building
community.
The proposed new Subdivision Kiosk Sign Design is shown on Exhibit “3.” The new updated sign
design is one foot wider (6’ to 7’) and comprised of more contemporary colors (blue and white sign
panels with black copy) that better reflects the image of Carlsbad as a “seaside community.”
Consistent with this new design, staff is recommending that Council Policy No. 65, Signs on Public
Property, be amended to revise the Subdivision Kiosk Sign Design Criteria. If the Council approves
this new sign design, MSI will complete the kiosk sign replacement within 63 days.
As a part of their proposal, MSI assessed the City’s topography relative to the number of active and
future residential projects and has suggested some additional kiosk sign locations. Accordingly,
staff is also recommending that the Kiosk Sign location map attached to Council Policy No. 65 be
modified to include these locations.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
This project is exempt from CEQA per Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction of Existing
Structures) and 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures). A Notice of
Exemption will be filed by the Planning Director upon project approval.
FISCAL IMPACT:
During FYs 2000-2001 , 2001-2002, and 2002-2003 the City received an average annual revenue of
$26,616 while under contract with SunCal Outdoor Advertising. Kiosk plaque fees with SunCal are
based on monthly fees of $20/Single Face and $30/Double Face.
As per the agreed upon fee schedule with MSI the City will receive an annual projected revenue of
$36,960. Kiosk plaque fees with MSI are based on $40/Single Face & Double Face. In addition,
MSI will update and maintain, at their cost, all existing and future kiosk signs with the new kiosk sign
design. All costs associated with the staff time involved in administering the Subdivision Kiosk Sign
Program are recovered by monthly fees ($40/sign plaque) collected from MSI.

Directional Kiosk Sign Program
April 1,2003
The Management approach will be built around an intricate understanding of sign ordinances,
sensitivity to the needs of the City, and building community.
All data transfers between MSI and the City will be hard copy documentation to include:
J Monthly updates of map of the sign locations.
J List of locations.
J List of users per location.
J Status report of removed signs.
J Kiosk program status report.
J Kiosk panel order form.
MSI will provide interested parties with a marketing package to include a letter and ordinance
excerpts, list of locations, map of locations, and o kiosk panel order form.
All approved requests for new signage, signage repair and signage removal shall be in writing
and shall be completed by MSI within three working days of receipt of such notice.
MSI anticipates that all project elements will be done 100% in-house. Therefore, there will be
no subcontractors to manage. We will utilize structural engineers from, Structural Technology
Consultants, Inc., to process the structural drawings for wind load and breakaway calculations.
MSI has an unsurpassed reputation for quality work, commitment to schedules and budgets in
the residential building industry.

The City Of Carlsbad
Directional Kiosk Sign Program
April 1,2003
MSl's approach to this program will be one of a professional consultant and partner with the
City in the implementation and administration of this program. The result will be a program
the City, its citizens, the building community and MSI can be proud of.
In addition, MSI will comply with all requirements of the City's sign ordinances pertinent to
kiosk signs. Prior to installation of the signage, we will conduct a "walk-through" to ensure all
signs are up to specifications.
All sign locations will be installed in the street side rights-of-way.
MSI will implement a weekly:
J Inspection.
J Installation.
J Sign removal.
J Maintenance program.
We anticipate that, if not'entirely controlling vandalism, this will mitigate its negative impact on
the sign program. Additionally, all signs will be treated with a graffiti guard product. Graffiti
removal will be completed within 24 hours.
As previously mentioned in the management approach section, MSI will create a marketing
package introducing the kiosk program.
In determining panel sequencing top to bottom on the structures, left turns will be at the top.
The next panel(s) will be right turns followed by straight ahead panels. This facilitates a safe
and orderly traffic flow while homebuyen navigate around the community.
In the interest of fairness to all program users, a policy will be used that provides panel
sequencing to be first left turn then right turn, then straights, as well as proximity to the project.
This policy will be covered in the marketing package to be sent to interested parties.

The City Of Carlsbad
Directional Kiosk Sign Program
April 1, 2003
The following work program will be finalized between MSI and the City. The following is a brief
description of the program elements. The implementation of the sign program will require an
overall timeline of 10 business days.
Location Analysis (two davs)
City provided map will be reviewed by MSI and City staff. Throughout the location
analysis phase, public health and safety considerations will take precedence over all
other requirements. Final sign locations will be subject to review and approval by the
Building Director, Planning Director and City Engineer.
Leasina/Perm itti nq (five days1
Upon location approval, MSI will initiate the process of obtaining ground leases,
encroachment and building permits as required.
Fabrication/lnstallation (ten davsl
Concurrent with the leasing/permitting phase, we will commence construction.
Marketina Ion-aoind
Concurrent with fabrication, upon acquiring leases and permits, all potential Kiosk
panel users will be contacted in a timely manner. This will provide ample time to ensure
complete and fair participation prior to commencement of Kiosk installation.
Marketing and leasing will be an ongoing process. A marketing packet will be
prepared containing price lists for set-up fees, leasing, along with the current map of
locations and availability. This packet wilt be sent to all sub-division builders at the time
Kiosk sign building permits are applied for or issued.

Maintenance and Service [onqoing)
Our present goal is to dedicate a minimum of one full day each week to install new
panels, remove old panels and provide general required maintenance. As the structures
age, repaints will be required. In addition, we will allocate a minimum of 8 hours each
Saturday and Sunday removing all weekend directional signs, as well as provide a
weekly report to the Sign Enforcement Officer.
As additional structures are added to the kiosk sign program, more time will be
allocated for service, maintenance and enforcement.

aspects of obtaining ground leases, permitting and maintenance.
MSI presently manages lease contracts of several hundred signs for individual
subdivision housing tracts for communities and municipalities which permit off-site signs.
Maintenance crews monitor our sign programs on a periodic scheduled basis to
perform routine repairs, i.e., leaning and damaged structures/faces/panels, graffiti, etc.
MSI Maior Kiosk Proarams
In addition to the above subdivision signage programs, MSI has also designed,
fabricated and installed a number of kiosk programs for multiple municipalities and
