If you didn’t see reporter Katherine Tam’s story today in the Contra Costa Times about the Lafayette City Council’s decision Monday night to delay a vote on limiting the number of signs on residential property, take a read now.

The proposal wouldn’t affect the controversial crosses on a hill near BART, but would affect future such signs.

The vote was put off until May 29 after the American Civil Liberties Union challenged the proposed limit as violating free speech.
