Among the items the Chapel Hill Town Council will be reviewing at tonight's public hearing is a revision to the LUMO to loosen the regulations on ground signs at commercial developments outside of downtown, including:
- Removing the limit on the amount of information that can be displayed on the sign;
- Increasing the maximum information display area from 15 to 50-72 square feet;
- Increasing the maximum overall signage area from 15 to 216 square feet; and
- Increasing the maximum height from 8 feet to 10-12 feet, depending on the speed limit of the adjacent road.
