CURRENT BILL SUMMARY
SB 723 - This act imposes an assessment fee of $1.50 per square foot on certain outdoor advertising structures. The fee is not imposed on certain organizations (religious organizations, service organizations, veterans' organizations, and fraternal organizations)(such organizations are currently exempt from permit and inspection fees). The assessment fees shall be deposited in the state road fund and the commission shall keep a separate accounting of such fees. The fees shall be used to pay just compensation for the removal of lawfully existing billboards.
