Title

Amending Section 31.14(2)(e) of the Madison General Ordinances allow Group 2 signs for all allowed nonresidential uses in Group 1.

Body

DRAFTER’S ANALYSIS:    The sign code uses groups of zoning districts to organize some of its regulations. There are three groups. This ordinance amendment clarifies that, for non-residential uses in Group 1, the rules for Group 2 will apply when that use is allowed under the zoning code, whether as a conditional use or a permitted use.
