Summary

Existing law authorizes local authorities to adopt rules and regulations by ordinance or resolution regarding specified matters, including, among other things, regulating advertising signs on motor vehicles parked or left standing upon a public street. Existing law provides that the ordinance or resolution may establish a minimum distance that the advertising sign shall be moved after a specified time period. Existing law excludes from the above authorization advertising signs that are painted directly upon or are permanently affixed to the body of, an integral part of, or a fixture of a motor vehicle for permanent decoration, identification, or display and that do not extend beyond the overall length, width, or height of the vehicle. This bill would recast this exclusion by defining "permanently affixed" for the purpose of this exclusion as, among other things, "painted directly on the body of the motor vehicle" and making a conforming change. This bill would also exclude paper advertisements issued by a dealer contained within a license plate frame and any advertisments on a license plate frame installed in compliance with existing law from the above authorization.
