The City of San Jose announced on Apr. 24 that an addendum has been posted for the Electronic Signs on City-Owned Property Project, specifically addressing digital billboard installations at West Mission Street and Mabury Road. The project is set to be discussed at a City Council hearing scheduled for May 5.
This update is significant as it pertains to the installation and operation of two new electronic billboards intended to be placed on city-owned properties. One single-sided sign would be located at the southeast corner of Guadalupe Parkway and West Mission Street, while a double-sided sign is planned for 1404 Mabury Road. The proposed structures are approximately 60 feet and 85 feet in height, respectively, with operating hours from 6:00 a.m. to midnight every day in accordance with current city policy.
The project follows guidelines established by Title 23 of the San José Municipal Code and Council Policy 6-4. Both locations—West Mission Street (Assessor’s Parcel Number: 259-04-019) and Mabury Road (Assessor’s Parcel Number: 254-01-004)—were previously approved under File No. ER23-052, according to information provided by the city.
San Jose serves the Santa Clara Valley area, which includes several neighborhoods and historical districts according to its historical context page. The city also maintains cultural initiatives such as the Japanese Friendship Garden and Mexican Heritage Plaza that contribute to community enrichment as noted online. Additionally, historic sites like the San Jose Historical Museum in Kelley Park preserve local heritage through relocated buildings and collections as described by city resources.
Leadership in San Jose consists of a mayor elected at large along with an eleven-member council representing specific districts according to its official charter. The city’s mission focuses on delivering quality public services while fostering a safe environment for residents, businesses, and visitors as stated by officials.
