CityCouncil | 2013-11-05 | 7 | Councilmember Tam inquired what modifications were recommended by Bike Alameda. The Contract Planner responded the modifications included restricting the signs to the three feet immediately adjacent to the buildings and the signs should be stable; stated there was concern that the originally considered area next to the curb, would interfere with car doors. Councilmember Chen inquired if multiple business owners in one building would saturate the sidewalks with signs.
