A second sign was stuck on a hill overlooking Payne’s garage on 211 east of Washington.
While it appears that the county won’t move swiftly to enforce provisions of local ordinances, tke highway department doesn’t delay. According to Julian Aylor, the man in charge of issuing the department’s sign permits, Route 211 is classified as a primary highway. The only signs allowed along it must go in commercial and industrial zones or within 500 feet of a commercial place of business. In addition, Aylor emphasized, any signs must be approved by county zoning.
He reported that he’d sent St. Clair two applications for sign permits which must be filled out and returned to the highway department within 30 days. If the completed applications aren’t received within 30 days, a 15-day final notice is sent. According to Aylor, the St. Clairs’ time limit expires January 1. Neither application has been returned to date by the Black Kettle’s owner.
Aylor emphasized, however, that if the county hasn’t first approved the proposed sign, there’s no need to apply to the state. Although the Black Kettle signs comply with highway department regulations, “if the county doesn’t approve it, that’s it,” he said. Aylor added that he will remove the signs if proof of approval from the county isn’t received by the stipulated time limit.
