City Council Regular Meeting

Meeting Date:

12/10/2019

BACKGROUND

A few months ago City Council requested a presentation on the UDC as it relates to prohibitions on relocating billboards. Billboards are generally considered off-premise signs in that they advertise something other than the business located on the same property as the sign. The UDC does not allow them to be relocated. Currently, the UDC only allows for some signs (on-premise) to be relocated in some circumstances (when necessitated by government acquisition of land).

The UDC could be amended to modify the current provision to also include off-premise signs. It could also be amended to expand the reasons signs are allowed to be relocated, beyond government acquisition of land on which the sign is located, such as to allow for development or redevelopment of the property.

All ordinances amending the UDC must be considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission prior to being considered for adoption by Council.
