P&Z to Consider Electronic Signs

Commission could recommend new code to Council for final approval

Planning and Zoning will consider an ordinance that will regulate electronic signs at tonight’s meeting.

The commission will vote on whether to recommend it to Council for approval.

The zoning code as written allows "changeable copy" signs but does not regulate them, said City Planner George Smerigan. “They’re becoming more and more popular,” he said, “and the city just wanted to get some sort of a provision in the code that would establish criteria or standards.”
