The Queen Creek Town Council is set to consider a change to the town's sign ordinance that could facilitate the addition of more public art. The proposed amendment aims to clarify the definition of murals within the zoning code and determine which specific types of murals would be exempt from standard sign regulations.
The council is scheduled to hold a public hearing on the matter during its meeting on Sept. 2. Following the hearing, the body is expected to take action on the proposed zoning amendment. The move is described as a step that could open the door to more public murals in the community.
The source notes that a mural currently exists on the east side of Ellsworth Road, just north of Aldecoa Drive, though it does not specify if this specific location is directly related to the proposed ordinance changes. Further details regarding the specific criteria for exemption or the scope of the amendment were not provided in the available text.
