ORDINANCE 08-14 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF WINTER GARDEN, FLORIDA AMENDING SECTION 102-92 OF CHAPTER 102 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF WINTER GARDEN CONCERNING PROHIBITED SIGNS WITHIN ALL ZONING DISTRICTS; PROVIDING FOR A MECHANISM TO ENCOURAGE THE ELIMINATION OF EXISTING BILLBOARD SIGNS IN UNDESIRABLE LOCATIONS WITHIN THE CITY BY ESTABLISHING A CITY COMMISSION VARIANCE PROCESS TO FACILITATE THE SUBSTITUTION OF AN EXISTING BILLBOARD IN AN UNDESIRABLE LOCATION WITH A BILLBOARD IN A MORE DESIRABLE LOCATION WITHIN THE CITY; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING FOR CONTROL IN EVENT OF CONFLICTS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, the City Commission finds that certain existing legally non-conforming billboard signs are obstructive, unduly distracting and confusing to motorists by diverting attention away from the roadway, and resulting in safety threats to vehicular and pedestrian traffic; and WHEREAS, the City Commission finds that certain existing legally non-conforming billboard signs constitute aesthetic harm by cluttering the urban landscape and traffic corridors of the City; and WHEREAS, the City Commission finds it to be in the best interest of the public health, safety and welfare to encourage the elimination of certain existing legally non-conforming billboard signs by creating a variance process to facilitate the substitution of an existing billboard in an undesirable location with another billboard sign that the City Commission finds less obtrusive, improves the aesthetic character of the City and placed in a more desirable location. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ENACTED BY THE CITY OF WINTER GARDEN, FLORIDA, AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: Authority. The City of Winter Garden has the authority to adopt this Ordinance pursuant to Article VIII of the Constitution of the State of Florida and Chapter 166, Florida Statutes. Section 2: Adoption. Section 102-92 of the City of Winter Garden Code is amended to read as follows (words that are stricken out are deletions; words that are underlined are additions): Sec. 102-92. Prohibited signs. The following types of signs are prohibited in all districts: (1) Any sign placed on public property, including the right-of-way, unless authorized by the city commission. (2) Any sign which obstructs a fire escape or window, door or opening used as a means of ingress or egress or which prevents free passage across a roof; and no sign shall be attached in any manner to a fire escape nor shall any sign be placed in a manner that will interfere with any opening required for ventilation. (3) Signs which simulate emergency vehicles, traffic control signals or devices, or which simulate directional, informational and warning signs erected by government or a governmental agency, or by any railroad, public utility or similar agency. (4) Billboard signs, regardless of zoning district. Those billboard signs legally erected in the city prior to June 11, 1987, or legally erected within the unincorporated county prior to annexation into the city will be allowed to remain as nonconforming signs which cannot be rebuilt or replaced if greater than 50 percent of the sign structure or value is destroyed. When the cost of materials to repair or replace the sign exceed 50 percent of the physically depreciated value of the structural materials in the sign immediately prior to the destruction, the criteria of this subsection will be deemed to have been met, and the sign may not be replaced or repaired. For billboard signs not legally in place prior to June 11, 1987, an amortization period ending December 31, 1994, is provided within which period the sign must be removed. Failure to comply with this subsection will result in a violation of this chapter for the property owner and the sign owner. This subsection shall not apply to billboard signs and structures preexisting along federal aid primary highways in the city. However, if a federal aid primary highway is later converted to a nonfederal aid highway, this subsection shall apply to billboards along such highway, becoming effective the first day upon which the highway becomes a nonfederal aid primary highway. No new billboard signs or structures shall be erected in the city. The City Commission shall have the authority to grant a variance to this subsection in those instances where an existing legally non-conforming billboard sign is being eliminated and being replaced with another billboard sign that the City Commission finds less obtrusive, improves the aesthetic character of the City and placed in a more desirable location.

(5) Signs that involve motion or rotation of any part except a time and temperature unit or an automatic changing sign, as defined in section 102-1, in an area zoned commercial or business. (6) Animated signs and flashing signs, and this is not intended to prohibit changing signs, as defined in section 102-1.
