ORDINANCE NO. 44413-87
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF CLEARWATER, FLORIDA,
ry RELATING TO SIGN REGULATIONS; AMENDING SECTION
134.015(b), CODE OF ORDINANCES, TO PROVIDE THAT A
NONCONFORMING SIGN CONSISTING OF A SIGN PAINTED ON A
FENCE OR WALL OR THE ROOF OR WALL OF A BUILDING MAY
NOT BE ALTERED, RENOVATED OR OTHERWISE CHANGED
UNLESS SUCH ACTION BRINGS THE-SIGN INTO CONFORMITY
ct WITH THE SIGN REGULATIONS, AND TO PROVIDE THAT A
NONCONFORMING SIGN MAY BE RELOCATED UPON THE SAME
PROPERTY WHENEVER A PORTION OF THE PROPERTY IS
ACQUIRED THROUGH THE EXERCISE OF THE POWER OF
EMINENT DOMAIN, IF THE RELOCATION IS NECESSARY TO
REDUCE THE ACQUISITION COSTS OF THE PROPERTY.
WHEREAS, the sign regulations set forth in Chapter 134, Code of Ordinances,
provide that no nonconforming sign may be altered or relocated unless such action
brings the sign into conformance with the provisions of the sign regulations; and
WHEREAS, an exception has been made for message changes on certain
nonconforming signs if no alteration is made to the sign structure, and this exception
has proven to be an undesirable "loophole" for signs merely painted on walls; and
WHEREAS, no exception has been made for the necessity to relocate a
nonconforming sign whenever a portion of the property is acquired through the
exercise of the power of eminent domain, and the absence of such an exception
tends to increase the acquisition costs of property acquired by the State of Florida and
other agencies having the power of eminent domain, which result was not intended by
the City Commission;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF CLEARWATER, FLORIDA:
Section 1. Subsection (b) of Section 134.015, Code of Ordinances, Is amended to
read:
See. 134.015. Nonconforming signs.
(b) Notwithstanding the terms of subsection (a):
(1) Any nonconforming sign existing on October 13, 1985, that is damaged to
the extent that the o.ost for complete repair does not exceed fifty (50) per cent of the
replacement cost of the sign may be repaired.
(2) The message on any nonconforming sign existing on October 13, 1985, may
be changed one or more times after that date, provided that no alteration is made to
the sign structure. However, this paragraph shall not be construed to allow a
nonconforming sign which Is painted on a fence or wall or the roof or a_ wall of a
building to be altered, renovated or otherwise changed unless such action brings the
si into conformity with the rovisions of this cha ter.
