LAC 70:III.119. Policy

A. Traffic signs as determined by the department shall be placed so as to avoid obscuring exiting off-premise or on-premise outdoor advertising displays, provided the traffic sign can be legally, safely and effectively erected in an adjacent location which does not obscure such displays. B. Trees, shrubs or other vegetation plantings shall not be placed so as to purposely obscure existing off-premise or on-premise outdoor advertising displays. Where existing plantings do obscure displays that were in place prior to the planting, judicious trimming, relocation, removal or replacement will be considered as warranted by local conditions. It is emphasized that this policy relating to plantings will not apply to landscaped segments of highway, or to illegally placed signs.
