Action Alert: Speak Out this Thursday, April 20, at 9 am

This Thursday, April 20th, the kiosk proposal will be presented for a vote of the City of San Diego Planning Commission. This is your opportunity to oppose outdoor advertisers’ latest assault. Here's how to take action:

1. Good: Submit your opposing comments online by April 19:  Sample message text: Regarding Agenda Item No. 1: Hon. Commissioners, Please vote on Thursday to deny authorization for the proposed 50 digital ad platforms downtown, which require damaging exemptions from the City of San Diego’s historic 40-year freeze on outdoor ads.  San Diego was the first in the nation to establish a city’s right to limit outdoor ads to promote aesthetics and public safety. San Diego is unique in its relative lack of commercial advertising in the public right-of-way.  Don’t make us look like Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Phoenix and other cities inundated with outdoor ads. Vote No! Submit your comment on SanDiego.gov. 
2. Better: Attend via Zoom or Phone. Download instructions. 
3. Best: Attend in person at City Hall downtown to speak or cede time to our coordinator Pam Wilson, so she can speak for more than two minutes. Get Directions | Download parking info. Sign up to join us!
