The following excerpt is from Crown Motors v. City of Redding, 232 Cal.App.3d 173, 283 Cal.Rptr. 356 (Cal. App. 1991):
The approval of an electronic reader board was imminent and would be accomplished if the city council did not enact the ordinance with an urgency provision, allowing it to take effect immediately. The city council made the subjective determination one more electronic reader board would detrimentally affect the aesthetics and, thus, the public health of Redding. We conclude the city council reasonably found an urgency under Government Code section 36937, subdivision (b). (See Northgate Partnership v. City of Sacramento, supra, 155 Cal.App.3d at p. 69, 202 Cal.Rptr. 15.)
