It is expected that candidates for City Council will want to use campaign signs to promote their candidacy. The City asks that each candidate keep in mind the best interests of the community, through compliance with the following:
(a) Political and election signs, including their supporting structures, shall be permitted on private property and public rights-of-way in all zoning districts.
(b) Signs advertising a political candidate, political party, or ballot measure may be displayed only during a period beginning forty-five (45) days before the election or vote and ending fourteen (14) days after the election or vote.
(c) No person shall install or maintain or cause to be installed or maintained any sign which simulates or imitates in size, color, lettering, or design any traffic sign or signal, or which makes use of words, “STOP,” “LOOK,” or “danger,” or any words, phrases, symbols, or characters in such a manner as to interfere with, mislead, or confuse traffic.
