BACKGROUND: The Moorpark Chamber of Commerce has requested the City allow the placement of vertical display banners attached to Street Light Poles owned by the Southern California Edison Company. The banners would be paid for by sponsors solicited by the Chamber of Commerce and placed along High Street, Spring Road, Princeton Avenue, Gabbert Road, Miller Parkway, Collins Drive, Campus Park Drive and Tierra Rejada Road. The Banners will celebrate the Annual Country Days Event and will be displayed between September 1, 2001 to October 15, 2001. Southern California Edison (SCE) policy dictates that a license agreement for such placements be entered into with the City. On April 5, 2000 the City Council approved a license agreement with Southern California Edison for this purpose subject to final language approval by the City Manager and the City Attorney. The proposed policy is designed to provide general guidelines for the sponsorship and the placement of vertical street banners in the street rights -of -way of the City of Moorpark. C. 0 0 Z' l L''.
