Passive panhandling, begging, charitable or political solicitation permitted except where expressly prohibited. The City Council finds that PASSIVE PANHANDLING, BEGGING, CHARITABLE OR POLITICAL SOLICITATION as defined in § 92.02 should be treated as speech protected under the First Amendment unless other well-grounded governmental concerns are implicated. Accordingly, passive panhandling, begging, charitable or political solicitation is permitted throughout the jurisdiction except as prohibited in §§ 92.05 and 92.06; however provided is that passive panhandling, begging, charitable or political solicitation is permitted on small traffic medians within the Columbus County Historic Courthouse square.
