Discussion on Political Signs
Director Polerecky provided the Committee Members with an overview of the current political
sign ordinance and the section of the ordinance that violates State Statute. He noted that current
State Statute prohibits regulating the political signs other than reasonable restrictions as to size.
No home rule or non -home rule municipality may prohibit the display of outdoor political
campaign signs on residential property during any time period. In addition, any ordinance limiting
the number of political signs on a residential property violates this law.
Director Polerecky commented on the current City's policy regarding political signs. He reported
that currently the Community Development Department Personnel does not tamper with or
remove political signs on private or commercial properties. However, if the political signs are
located within the public right of way or on City owned property the signs are collected by the
Department and placed at the Public Works facility. Candidates are notified where they can
retrieve their signs and also are informed of the areas in which they can display their signs.
Director Polerecky reported that City Hall is a polling place, during both early voting and Election
Day. During that time signs may be placed on the City Hall property, however no closer than 100'
E ' from the entrance of the polling area. He went on to report that prior to the campaign season a
form letter is sent to all known candidates informing them of the fact that campaign signs are
prohibited from being posted in a public right of way.
Director Polerecky stated that Attorney McArdle is recommending that the Municipal Code be
amended to reflect the changes in State Statutes with respect to political signs. The Committee
Members concurred with Attorney McArdle recommendation. This matter will be placed on an
upcoming City Council Agenda for consideration.
