[Ord. 558, 9/4/2012]
The OPAS Off-Premises Advertising Sign Overlay District is an
overlay zoning district whose purpose is to provide an area for the
placement of off-premises advertising signs, aka "billboards," in
the Township; to provide regulations for such signs — defined
as signs which advertise other than the business transacted, services
rendered, goods sold or produced on the premises, name of the business,
or the name of the person, firm or corporation occupying the premises;
to provide standards for construction of such signs; and to locate
such signs so that they are not adverse to the health, safety and
general welfare of the residents of Lower Southampton Township.
[Ord. 558, 9/4/2012]
The OPAS shall be considered an overlay zoning district in any
areas of the Township containing nonresidentially zoned property within
50 feet of the right-of-way established for the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
[Ord. 558, 9/4/2012]
All off-premises advertising signs shall comply with any and
all applicable zoning regulations not specifically established herein
and any and all Township, state and/or federal Regulations, including,
but not limited to, the Lower Southampton Township Building Code and
all applicable Pennsylvania Department of Transportation regulations.
