The year was 1960 when Lewis Milestone directed the original ‘Ocean’s 11’, featuring the legendary Rat Pack with icons like Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. “This is not Las Vegas,” he said.Download the RunPee app for free: Read more about the RunPee app. Oceanside resident Kevin Brown, who has been leading the opposition to digital signs in the city, said the casino’s proposed marker would be “out of character with our community.” In 2013, Vista dropped its plans to build two digital billboards off the highway, in part because residents opposed the project. On Wednesday, the council will meet in closed session to discuss negotiations with CBS Outdoor for another billboard on the south side of state Route 78 west of College Boulevard.

That sign would measure 14 feet tall and 48 feet wide and show illuminated digital ads that would rotate every few seconds, from sunrise to midnight. One digital billboard is being proposed by BGT Media on city-owned land on the north side of state Route 78 at Rancho Del Oro Drive. In 2012, the Oceanside City Council voted 4-1, with Councilwoman Esther Sanchez opposed, to approve a new sign ordinance allowing up to four digital billboards on city-owned property and some digital signs on private property. “We would need specifics on any proposal before being able to comment on particular signs,” said Pamela Wilson, director of Scenic San Diego.

Opponents of the digital sign, such as Scenic San Diego, said they are still waiting to see what the casino proposes. A portion of the casino’s winnings go to the city, typically about $1.5 million annually. Ocean’s Eleven can only offer card games, such as poker and blackjack. The digital sign would be able to announce games, promotions and specials to attract more customers. Kelegian had said that the digital sign was needed to better compete with American Indian casinos in North County that offer a wider variety of games, such as slot machines. It would include a two-sided LED digital display measuring about 23- feet wide by 11 feet tall.
