Candidates’ signs
(continued from page 7)
was the proliferation of political signs on the township’s
roadways at election time, especially on Macarthur Bou-
levard. Mahwah Township Attorney Andrew Fede advised
the governing body that the township cannot single out
political signs for prohibition, although it could control the
size of the signs. In addition, he advised that previous case
law indicated to him that the council could limit the time
that signs are posted, as long as that limitation applied to all
signs at all times of the year.
The governing body could not come to an agreement
that ordinance, however, and it died in a tie vote in Septem-
ber 2012, leaving the existing ordinance in place.
