Split council rejects more sign law talks
GILROY—On a split vote, the Gilroy City Council Monday handed a defeat to business leaders seeking to ease restrictions of advertising banners.
Council scales back sign ban
City Council overturned a controversial part of Gilroy's sign ordinance Aug. 18 and decided that A-frame signs are permitted downtown. Though the required size of the A-frame signs has yet to be determined, they must be constructed of a wrought iron frame. Handheld signs, including those twirled by advertisers promoting new housing developments, are prohibited within city limits.
Public decries sign ordinance
Car dealers, furniture dealers and other small business owners showed up in force to boycott Gilroy's extensive sign ordinance during a special council meeting Monday night.
