Pitman council considers formal banner policy to limit applicants and content
Summary
Council discussed formalizing a banner policy that could restrict applicants to Borough committees, limit banner content to federal holidays or nationally recognized months, and set a process for handling multiple applications for the same date; council recommended amending the ordinance.
Councilman Uyehara led discussion at the March 10 work session on creating a formal banner policy to avoid future confusion on applications and content. Options discussed included "only allowing Borough Committees/Commissions to apply," limiting content to federal holidays and nationally recognized months, and placing seasonal "Welcome to Pitman" banners. The council also discussed procedures to prioritize multiple applications for the same date and recommended amending the ordinance to codify the process.
No ordinance vote occurred at the work session; members directed staff to draft a proposed amendment for formal consideration at a later meeting.
