Outdoor advertising displays: redevelopment agency project areas.
- Extends authorization for certain outdoor advertising displays in former redevelopment areas until January 1, 2028.
- Requires local governments to ensure displays provide public benefit and comply with federal highway funding rules.
- Imposes $10,000 daily fines on display owners who fail to remove advertising after federal violation notices.
Assembly Member Ta proposes extending the authorization period for certain off-premises advertising displays within former redevelopment agency project areas through January 1, 2028, modifying current law that expires January 1, 2026. The displays must be located within project boundaries as they existed on December 29, 2011, and must have been constructed before January 1, 2012.
The legislation maintains existing requirements for these displays, including provisions to protect federal highway funding. Display owners must remove advertising content within 60 days if federal authorities indicate the display could reduce highway funds under Section 131 of Title 23 of the United States Code. Failure to comply results in daily $10,000 civil fines from the California Department of Transportation.
Local jurisdictions retain primary oversight responsibility for ensuring displays comply with regulations and provide public benefit. Cities and counties that fail to address compliance issues within 30 days of notification from the Department of Transportation must indemnify the department for any resulting enforcement or legal defense costs. The department maintains concurrent enforcement authority under the Outdoor Advertising Act.
