Billboards allowed on airport-designated land
Summary
The Metropolitan Airports Commission wants to put up a billboard next to Highway 10 on airport property, but current zoning doesn't allow signs on Airport-designated land. The commission's recommendation to allow it now goes to the city council, which decides September 9. Any billboard still has to meet every existing rule for height, size, spacing and design.
