A city that's safe from advertising

Montana is one of the last places we would expect to hear about an advertising controversy, but it’s happening in Bozeman. The city council voted last week to revoke an earlier ordinance that allowed the city to sell advertising on city vehicles. Apparently, most of the advertising had been placed on the city’s garbage trucks. It was a narrow 3-2 vote to change the law, which had been passed two months earlier by the same margin.
