ROURKE, CITY ATTORNEY BILLBOARDS, REMOVAL OF REPORTS No. 5 1271,-80 We have previously advised you that the favorable decision of the California courts in the case of Metromedia v. San Diego has been appealed by Metromedia to the U.S. Supreme Court. The fact that the U.S. Supreme Court has granted a hearing in this case raises the possibility that a majority of the Supreme Court Justices may doubt the correctness of the decisions of the California courts. The City of San Diego has requested the filing of individual amicus curiae briefs with the Supreme Court in this matter. The League of California Cities Legal Advocacy Committee has approved the filing of such briefs. A copy of that.Committee's report is attached. We don't know that it is warranted for the City to spend the money necessary for attorneys' fees and printing costs to file such a brief, considering that there are many other cities in California and the nation with much greater resources; however, because of the concern and interest the Council has had in the removal of billboards, we felt it appropriate to bring the matter to your attention. cc: Dan Blankenship Enclosure JGR:lw:D:11/14/80 LCP, the holding of a total of 14 public hearings respecting it, and approval of the LCP by the Regional Commission, following staff recommendations the State Commission certified the City's LCP with conditions which substantially change the plan. While • "y other contentions are made, the thrust of the City's action is that the certifi- __. L_,:ion of a local coastal program by the Commission with conditions is contrary to the certification procedure required by Public Resources Code §30512 which states in part that the Commission "shall . . . either refuse certification or certify in whole or in part, the land use plan." While the State Commission's resolution of certification _ pursuant to §30512 "certifies the total local coastal program for the City of Chula Vista" it proceeds to qualify the certification by indicating that it is subject to conditions. It is therefore argued that since §30512 (c) does not provide for adding conditions to the certification of an LCP, the Commission's action with regard to the Chula Vista pian is in violation of clear statutory requirements. Some cities have already either filed amicus curiae briefs in the case or have indicated support for the Chula Vista position. The City Attorney of Santa Barbara is presently preparing an amicus curiae brief in which other interested cities are invited to join. In accordance with the recommendations of the Committee and League Board of Directors those wishing to join as amici in the Santa Barbara brief should so indicate no later than December.l to: Fred Clough City Attorney City Hall - P.O. Drawer P -P Santa Barbara, CA 93102 (805) 963-0611 FILING OF INDIVIDUAL AMICUS BRIEFS INVITED T- light of the U.S. Supreme Court action noting probable jurisdiction in Metromedia Inc. _ City of San Diego, the Committee took action inviting the filing of individual amicus curiae briefs in support of the City before that court. The issues are basically those which were decided favorably by the State Supreme Court in its opinion on rehearing (26 Cal. 3d 848). Therein the city ordinance banning all off-site advertising billboards and requiring the removal of existing billboards following expiration of an amortization period was upheld on grounds that its recited purposes of eliminating traffic hazards and -" improving the appearance of the city were proper police power objectives. The state court further held that the ordinance ban on commercial off-site billboards did not abridge freedom of speech or press since it did not seek to suppress the content of the advertiser's message, served significant governmental interests and left open adequate alternative means of communication. The state court did, however, hold that the ordinance was partially preempted by the State Outdoor Advertising Act to the extent that the ordinance required removal without compensation of billboards within 660 feet of federal interstate, and primary highways for which compensation is required and to that extent the ordinance was invalid. Any City Attorney interested in filing an amicus brief in support of San Diego before the U.S. Supreme Court is urged to notifiy: John W. Witt City Attorney City Administration Building 202 C Street San Diego, CA 92101 (714) 236-6220 INFORMATION ONLY . ,...e Committee took action simply directing the dissemination of information with respect to the following cases: -2- DATE: November 25, 1980 Inter -Coin TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: JAMES G. ROURKE, CITY ATTORNEY DANIEL K. SPRADLIN, DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY SUBJECT: REGULATION OF OUTDOOR ADVERTISING STRUCTURES AND REMOVAL THEREOF - SUPPLEMENTAL MEMORANDUM NO. 6 We have been advised by Mobile Oil Corporation that pursuant to our directive, they have required Foster & Kleiser to remove the billboard located at 171 East First Street on the northwest corner. In addition, we have now received from Mr. Howard P. Shelton his appraisal of the billboards within the City of Tustin. The total value he places on the signs is $124,985.00. This reflects the appraised value of the signs as of November 17, 1980. Since the date of Mr. Shelton's appraisal, however, the sign located at 171 East First Street has been removed, and its appraised value of $8,320.00 must be subtracted from the total value set by Mr. Shelton. A copy of Mr. Shelton's appraisal report is attached hereto for reference.
