The Challenges Billboards Create for Municipalities

 

Is the municipality at risk of being sued by a billboard company?

Companies which plan, design and build billboards, and in particular electronic billboards, do careful demographic studies to determine those locations which will generate enough car traffic to justify the substantial cost of developing a billboard. Therefore, a municipality needs to do an analysis to determine whether it is likely to be selected as a suitable location for a billboard. This video reviews the factors that go into the risk-benefit analysis, the effect of DOT regulations, and problems presented by the need to redo sign ordinance to address potential challenges.
