Ordinance No. 2007- Page 9 <br />(a) The applicant agrees in writing to permanently remove, within 15 <br />days after issuance of the permit at least two other faces of an outdoor advertising sign <br />in the city that are owned or leased by the applicant, each of which must satisfy the <br />criteria of parts (b) through (d) of this subsection. This removal must include the <br />complete removal of the structure and foundation supporting each sign face. The <br />applicant must agree that the city may remove the sign if the applicant does not timely <br />do so and the application must be accompanied by a cash deposit or letter of credit <br />acceptable to the city attorney sufficient to pay the city's costs for that removal. The <br />applicant must also agree that it is removing the sign voluntarily and that it has no right <br />to compensation for the removed sign under any law. <br />(b) The city has not previously issued an enhanced dynamic display <br />permit based on the removal of the particular faces relied upon in this permit <br />application. <br />(c) Each removed sign has a copy and graphic area of at least 288 <br />square feet and satisfies two or more of the following additional criteria: <br />(1) The removed sign is located adjacent to a highway with <br />more than two regular lanes and with a general speed limit of 45 miles per hour or <br />greater, but that does not have restrictions on access equivalent to those of an <br />interstate highway; <br />(2) All or a substantial portion of the structure for the removed <br />sign was constructed before 1975 and has not been substantially improved; <br />(3) The removed sign is located in a noncommercial zoning district; <br />(4) The removed sign is located in a special planning area <br />designated in the 1999 comprehensive plan; or <br />(5) The removed copy and graphic area is equal to or or greater <br />than the area of the copy and graphic area for which the enhanced dynamic display <br />permit is sought. <br />(d) If the removed sign face is one for which a state permit is required <br />by state law, the applicant must surrendered its permit to the state upon removal of the <br />sign. The sign that is the subject of the enhanced dynamic display permit cannot begin <br />to operate until proof is provided to the city that the state permit has been surrendered. <br />The stricken language is deleted; the underlined language is inserted. <br />9 <br />
