Summary
Churches, mosques, and synagogues would gain the same billboard protections schools and parks already have, banning alcohol, marijuana, tobacco, and vape ads within 1,000 feet. A District 3 pastor's fight against a 'King Bud' sign next to his church drove the change. The full council gets the final say.
