Mayor Mark Allen told listeners the council amended the city sign ordinance to remove the requirement that residential event signs receive a no‑fee permit. "What that means in layman's terms is that we removed the requirement for a fee to do a garage sale sign or a open house sign," Allen said.
The mayor framed the change as administrative and said the fee requirement has been removed; the recap did not include the ordinance number, mover/second, or a formal vote tally in the transcript. The summary provided by the mayor did not state whether the change was immediate or whether an effective date and ordinance citation would be published in the city records.
The council recap did not include public testimony or opposition on the item in the mayor's summary. The mayor said the council discussed the ordinance during the meeting and described it as an approved amendment.
