Show SEEKS TO REGULATE BILLBOARDS OE CITY Councilman Fernstrom offered to the Council committees Wednesday night an ordinance regulating billboards. If this ordinance is passed by the Council, Coun-cil, all billboards will have to be approved ap-proved by the building Inspector. If he declares a structure unsafe, it must be demolished. -No billboard may be built without a permit, and these permits will cost $1. All billboards and signboards must be twenty feet diitant from all sidewalks, streets or alleys, unless the owner gives a bond of $5000 to protect the city against damages that might result by reason of the existence of the board, or by reason of its falling, collapse or lack of repair. |
