152 <br /> TRIANGLE J COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS <br /> 100 PARK DRIVE P.O. BOX 12276 RESEARCII TRIANGLE PARK. N.C. 27709 (919)549-0551 <br /> December 9, 19$5 <br /> Mr. Don Willhoit, Chairman <br /> Orang.e County Board of Commissioners <br /> 203 Lexington Road <br /> Chapel Hi11 , NC 27514 <br /> Dear Mr. IWillh . <br /> Under new regulations for the NC DOT LOGO sign program, businesses who <br /> qualify may pay upfront for the installation of signs to put them in <br /> place ahead of the State's schedule for doing so. All businesses whose <br /> logos appear on the signs would split the installation and maintenance <br /> costs. A 'typical intersection installation consisting of two panels <br /> and two directional signs; accommodating up to six logos would cost <br /> about $$,;000. These traveler information signs may now be used on all <br /> controlled-access highways, not just Interstates. The program is intended <br /> for non-urban areas and will not be used within the limits of cities <br /> with a population of 25,000 or more. <br /> If you halve an interest in having this program in your area and <br /> more information, please contact Ray Green or Anne Franklin ofourestaff. <br /> You may also call James M. Lynch, Manager, Traffic Engineering Branch, <br /> Division of Highways, NC Department of Transportation,. 733-3915 for details <br /> on how it' works. <br /> The TJCOG, Regional Transportation Committee and the Board of Delegates <br /> has been encouraging broad application of the program for sometime. We <br /> hope you will let us know if your jurisdiction helps to put the program <br /> in place. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> i <br /> ,—/_,-( / <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> Brad ey S.
