Nays: None. c. Request by Community Development Department to Amend the Text of Zon- ing Code, Section 1010.09.A.6.a (Pertaining to Political Signs) City Planner Thomas Paschke briefly reviewed this item as detailed in the RCA and related attachments, May 9, 2016. Mayor Roe noted these changes had already been incorporated into state law, and this requested action simply revised city code to mirror that language. Councilmember McGehee questioned the need for this action, suggesting it would be simpler and easier to understand with a date rather than a candidate having to calculate 46 days as proposed. Councilmember Willmus opined that if you're running for elective office, you should be able to perform that calculation. Mayor Roe noted that the state statute dictated the timeframe, and suggested that it was likely that the City could not deviate from the State statute requirements in this case. City Attorney Gaughan stated that he'd want to review the actual state statute wording, but opined he would anticipate it would be inappropriate for the city code to be more restrictive with city sign code than that provided by the state. McGehee moved, Willmus seconded, enactment of Ordinance No. 1500 (Attach- ment A) entitled, "An Ordinance Amending Roseville City Code, Chapter 10 (Sign Regulations)." Mayor Roe noted that it was always up to individual candidates when they decid- ed to display their signs, but this provided the window for them to make those choices. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus, Etten, McGehee, Laliberte and Roe.
