I work in zoning. 25 years. About 10-15 years ago, a case was heard by the Supreme Court, Reed v. town of Gilbert determined that a municipality can not restrict the message of a sign except in very limited cases. Including f* joe Biden. Completely protected. So let’s use this power folks!

When have they followed the law?
Stop with the doomer response. This is a legitimate path. I have worked in several municipalities in different states and every one follows Reed on regulating sign content. Even if their code is content based, we all know to not base an approval of a permit on content/language. Entire conferences are based on this to educate us on the case law and avoid a lawsuit
OP, can you give me the name and year of the case? Ever since fighting my company over the vaxx (and winning!) I collect cases like this, just in case.
Here you go, fren
