Bill summary

Senate amendments makes the following changes to the 2nd edition.

Amendment #1

Deletes the language from the previous edition for proposed GS 153A-340(l) and GS 160A-381(h) concerning fence wraps displaying signage, replacing it with new provisions that provide that fence wraps that display signage on a perimeter fence at a construction site are exempt from the specified zoning regulations pertaining to signage until a certificate of occupancy is issued for the final portion of construction at that site or until 36 months from the time the fence wrap was installed, whichever is shorter. Also provides that if construction has not been completed at that sight after 36 months, then cities or counties can regulate such signage but must continue to allow fence wrapping materials on the perimeter fencing.

Amendment #2

Adds language to proposed GS 153A-340(l) and GS 160A-381(h), as amended above, to provide that fence wraps can only display advertising that is sponsored by an individual directly involved in the construction project and for which monetary compensation for the advertisement is not paid or required.
