Greetings,
On September 17, Colton city council members moved forward on 'political sign reform' against advice of it's city attorney that to do so would result in violations of the Constitution. At least one member spoke against the measure on the grounds that by doing so the city would cross the line in making it possible for local government to regulate how many potted plants a resident owns, but changed her opinion after a local business owner, who was instrumental in her election, spoke in favor of the measure.
It is not officially law yet: a second reading will be held this Tuesday,on October 1st at 6pm. The Mayor and at least 3 cm's seem to be on the fence and may be persuaded to vote against it. As I am not able to attend (work) I would like to invite anyone and everyone in the area who values the Constitution to come out and speak against this measure.
Here is the video of the meeting on the 17th. Scroll down on right and click on
