3. A city ordinance was passed providing for the removal, at the owner’s expense, of: (i) all outdoor advertising materials displayed or exposed to the public in designated regulated areas such as residential zones, bridges, and along main city streets; and (ii) billboards of substandard materials, or which obstruct road signs and traffic signals. Failure to comply with said ordinance authorizes the mayor, assisted by the police, to implement the removal of the non-compliant materials. ABC Ad Agency, owner of the billboards removed by the city, filed a complaint because, considering the nature of its business, the removal of its billboards amounted to taking of privated property without just compensation. Will the complainant prosper? Explain briefly. (5 points)
