SB 219 Utah Senate · 2026 General Session

Highway Signage Amendments

SB 219 amends Utah's highway signage laws to help businesses relocate or remodel signs when roads are widened or rebuilt. It directly affects sign owners (like advertising companies) who must move signs due to highway projects. Key changes include allowing these relocated signs to exceed standard height limits for visibility and letting owners begin remodeling 30 days after notifying local government - without waiting for approval. The bill modifies existing Utah Code sections (72-7-510 and 72-7-510.5) to streamline this process, with no new funding required. This applies only to signs moved because of highway construction, not to new signs or general signage rules.
