shall erect on the property, subject to the above -referenced application(s), a sign (or signs) indicating the property is to be
subject to public hearing and referencing how to obtain additional information regarding such hearing. The sign shall be
erected within ten (10) feet of whatever boundary line of such land abuts a public road and shall be so placed as to be
clearly visible from the road. If more than one such road abuts the property, then a sign shall be erected in the same
manner as above for each such abutting road. If no public road abuts thereon, then signs shall be erected in the same
manner as above on at least two boundaries of the property abutting land not owned by the applicant. The filing of the
petition or application shall be deemed to grant consent to the zoning administrator or designee to enter upon the property
and to erect the signs.
Upon a finding by the Board of Supervisors that failure to comply with the posting requirements of this section has denied
the public reasonable notice of the public hearing, the Board may defer action on the petition or application until
reasonable notice by posting is given.
The applicant shall exercise due diligence to protect the sign or signs erected, pursuant to section 33.25/33.38, from
vandalism and theft; maintain the sign or signs in the location or locations in an erect position as placed by the zoning
administrator or designee; and ensure that such sign or signs remain legible. Failure to comply with these responsibilities
may be grounds for the Commission or the Board of Supervisors to defer action on the petition or application until there is
reasonable compliance.
Any sign erected pursuant to section 33.25/33.38 shall remain the property of the Board of Supervisors. It shall be
unlawful for any person, except the applicant performing maintenance required by this section or the zoning administrator
or an authorized agent of either, to remove or tamper with any sign erected pursuant to section 33.25/33.38. All such
signs shall be removed by the zoning administrator or designee within fifteen (15) days following the Board of Supervisor's
final action on the petition or application or the applicant's withdrawal of the petition or application.
