About this project
A 672-square-foot illuminated billboard with changing advertising messages is proposed on the wall of an existing warehouse at West Lafayette Street and Water Street in Norristown, facing State Route 202. The Norristown Zoning Hearing Board already granted ten variances for the sign, and the municipality still needs to approve it as a conditional use.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: Safety at a busy intersection with turning movements and a SEPTA train crossing, Possible PennDOT Off-Premise Outdoor Advertising Device Permit before installation, Limit on messages per display cycle and cycles per minute, Off-premises advertising sign definition missing from sign-type section of zoning code, Inconsistent use of the term billboard in zoning findings
