CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION October 4, 2010 <br />45 A question was posed by council regarding the city's sign regulations and the previous <br />46 direction to report on how the regulations should be amended to recognize the longer <br />47 absentee balloting period. The current regulations do not allow campaign signs to be <br />48 posted for the full absentee balloting period. Community Development Director <br />49 Grochala noted that he is working with the city attorney on that issue as well as another <br />50 constitutional concern about the city's sign regulations; he anticipates bringing forward a <br />51 change for consideration after the first of the year and in time for next year's election <br />52 period. <br />53 <br />54 City Clerk Bartell added that there is additionally some language in the city charter that <br />55 does not correlate with recent election law changes at the state level and staff will be <br />56 reporting on that soon. <br />57 <br />58 There was concurrence that the discussion on the matter will continue and the council <br />59 would like to request feedback from the charter commission.
