BACKGROUND
On November 22, 2005, the City Council approved the Streetscape Revitalization Plan for the 100 Block of South Murphy Avenue. It also approved an interim policy on moving street furniture at the request of merchants and property owners. This policy will be valid during the interim time period between the Murphy Avenue Streetscape Design Plan project approval and completion of the first phase of implementation. Two revisions to the interim policy were discussed by staff and approved by Council: that an application for moving furniture must be reviewed and approved by the Sunnyvale Downtown Association, and that the proposed move must be consistent with the approved Streetscape Revitalization Plan. Council requested that the final wording of the policy be returned to the City Council as a Consent Item on the next agenda.
