According to the code, it seems to me that the structure his business is in needs to be torn down after the holiday.
Let me explain.
1. I'm sure he has a Christmas oriented & permitted sign outside. Obviously a violation after the holiday or are signs exempted? If so, make the Santa figures signs.
2. The structure itself has no other purpose except to house/hold Christmas decorations that are on DISPLAY with the hope of them being sold. This display of Christmas decorations after the holiday should then also be a violation.
If the building is exempted, then make the 2 Santa Clause figures a part of the structure by perminately attaching something between the two (building and the figures). Granted, a permit would probably be required but perhaps it could be pulled off.
I'll spare this thread and not post points 3 through 24.

Review the minutes of the council of any city that has a commercial strip and you'll see that huge amounts of time are spent on sign ordinances and waivers. And those are just the issues that escape from the planning commissions.
