   6.  21-0317    Discussion and Possible Action to Approve Ordinance Regulating Political Signs in the City of East Dubuque, Jo Daviess County, Illinois / Mayor VanOstrand, City Manager Herrig

Concerns of people removing signs without permission. Approval from owner to be able to place political or advertising signs on private property. Not on public right of ways.

Officers will have to see or have a witness to signs being removed without permission. If passed, signs pulled from private property, officers then can write a ticket.

Alderperson Stelpflug – like to table this. Asked about placing by the welcome center. State property so they can say if signs can be placed there. Need to check with them before placing there.

Alderman Arling – public right away is the grass area between street and sidewalk.

Alderperson Pearson – asking if signs for non-profits or churches would be ok by welcome center. State has the choice if they are ok.
