Among the prohibited signs under the proposal would be "Flags, banners and pennants." This has opponents upset. "What if I want to hang the American Flag? I can't," Frank Ferriero told politickerNJ. "Man, that's un-American." The proposed ordinance was first read at a meeting on Wednesday. The final vote on the proposal will be held on Feb. 20 at a 7 p.m. meeting at the municipal building. The ordinance would also ban signs affixed to the exterior of a window or glass, neon signs framing windows, and window and door signs that exceed 15% of the glass area. Posted by: Fred 2013-01-19 |
