Sign dispute pits CiCi's Pizza ads against city ordinance
CiCi's Pizza signs at Fairway Ridge Apartments near War Den Drive prompt a zoning disagreement. The two temporary freestanding signs, posted every second and fourth Monday for over a year, are deemed off-site advertising and violate the town's tone ordinance by exceeding sign limits and visibility from the road. City official Larry Abney says enforcement aims to keep Aiken visually appealing, while Beverly Smith urges changing the ordinance or relocating signs inside the complex.
