The Town of Urbana Board has approved a draft of a new proposed sign law.

The law is designed to permit businesses to place signs throughout the community in an effort to direct visitors and tourists to the Town’s numerous businesses and attractions.  Participating businesses will be encouraged to place a series of uniform signs where needed to lead visitors to their location.  The law is based upon the blue “New York State Tourist Oriented Directional Signs” commonly seen along State highways.  A similar program is in place in the Adirondack State Park.

The proposed law is an effort to help direct visitors to our outlying businesses and, at the same time, avoid the “sign clutter” that would detract from our scenic landscape.  The law is unique in that it was developed by a committee of area businesses working in conjunction with the Town Planning Board.  It is a proactive ordinance which is designed to “encourage” rather than “restrict”.  The Town of Urbana Board hopes that, once implemented, this law will serve as a model for the rest of the Keuka Lake area.

The complete law can be read HERE.
