SUMMARY OF SUBSTITUTE FOR 2013-493:

 

1)            clarifies that any sign required to be removed under an existing settlement agreement will not be eligible for sign removal credits;

2)            clarifies that there will never be any more billboards in Jacksonville than there are today (no replacement of a billboard allowed that would increase the total number of then-existing billboard structures);

3)            removes CO, CRO and CN as allowable zoning districts for replacement signs;

4)            provides that roadways that have become “billboard-free” because of removal obligations in settlement agreements will remain billboard free;

5)            caps height of replacement off-site signs at 50 feet when located anywhere other than on an interstate roadway;

6)            clarifies that all billboards are entitled to be maintained and repaired in accordance with the provisions of the Jacksonville Building Code, unless such signs are already subject to an amortization schedule pursuant to a judicially approved settlement agreement (which signs shall be governed by the terms of said agreement);

7)            clarifies that any billboard damaged by a natural disaster may be replaced (subject to the new zoning rules for spacing requirements); however, any replacement sign must be the same height, size and type of construction as the storm-damaged sign.
