Private signs are prohibited within the public right-of-way or <br /> easements, except that the council may grant a conditional use permit to locate <br /> signs and decorations on or within the right-of-way under their jurisdiction for a <br /> specified time not to exceed 90 days. No conditional use permit for such a sign <br /> shall be issued by the council if a conditional use permit or temporary sign permit <br /> had been issued in the previous 24 months to that property. <br /> (2) Flashing. Illuminated flashing signs shall not be permitted in any district. <br /> (3) Beams. Illuminated signs or devices giving off an intermittent, steady or rotating <br /> beam consisting of a collection or concentration of rays of light shall not be <br /> permitted in any district. <br /> (4) Sales signs.
