On Tuesday, the Loretto Board of Alderman took an initial step toward regulating the installation of billboards within the city limits by granting preliminary approval to a new ordinance. This measure aims to establish guidelines that will govern the placement and appearance of billboards in the area.
The aldermen intend to refine various details of the ordinance, including specific dimensions and setback requirements, prior to the second and final reading of the proposal. The board is scheduled to convene again at 5:15 PM on Tuesday, May 6, to continue discussions and finalize the regulations.
