Signs announcing specific events or promotions that are of a legitimate public benefit
to the community at large may be erected within the public right-of-way when authorized
by a "limited license" approved by the City Manager or designee. The size, number,
type, and wording of such signs must be specified in the license, as well as their
location and duration of use. Because of their unique location within the public right-of-way,
such banners shall not be placed so as to interfere with legitimate traffic and safety
concerns.
If such a limited license is denied by the City Manager or his designee on the grounds
that the sign to be licensed does not announce an event or promotion that is of legitimate
public benefit to the community at large, the applicant for the license shall have
the right to appeal to the Council of the City of Norman. Such appeal shall be taken
by filing with the City Clerk within ten (10) working days after denial of a license
by the City Manager or his designee a written statement setting forth fully the grounds
for the appeal. After receipt of the written statement, the City Clerk shall schedule
the appeal for hearing by the City Council on the next available agenda. The applicant
shall be notified of the time of the hearing at least seven (7) days prior to such
hearing. Proper mailing to the address shown on the application shall be adequate
notification. The decision and order of the Council on such appeal shall be final
and conclusive.
