Election and public information signs shall be permitted to be placed in the public right-of-way subject to the provisions of Sections 20.58.020(C) and 20.58.120 and all applicable state or federal regulations. However, no sign may be attached to any traffic-control device, as contained in Division II, Chapter 2 of the State of California Vehicle Code, nor may any sign except public information sign be attached to any tree or utility pole within the public right-of-way.
