SUBJECT: Billboard Legislation
Attached, for your information and review, is a copy of Resolution#2001-284 opposing the
proposed billboard legislation which has been recently adopted by the Broward County
® Board of County Commissioners.
As you are aware, the majority of Broward's cities as well as the county have enacted `
ordinances relating to billboards. The proposed legislation will preempt our ability to
enforce our existing ordinances.
On behalf of the Board of County Commissioners, if your city has not already passed a
resolution opposing this effort, we request that you consider doing so at this time, and
forwarding your concerns to our Legislative Delegation and bill sponsors.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me at
357-7362 or Pam Madison at 357-7357 if you have any questions or comments regarding
this request.
