Council questions sign-reform proposal

Members of the Baltimore County Council said Tuesday that they need more time to consider a proposal to limit the lifespan of campaign signs on private property to 30 days before the vote.

Fellow lawmakers and some residents questioned the constitutionality of the proposal by Council Member Kevin Kamenetz, D-District 2, which also would limit one sign per candidate per lot and allows the county to hold the property owner and campaign treasurer responsible for violations.
