Council to Hold Public Hearing on Billboards Ordinance

Council is considering an ordinance regulating billboards in the municipality.

Norristown Municipal Council meets tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Norristown Municipal Hall, 235 E. Airy Street and there's a grab bag of topics on tonight's agenda.

Council will revisit proposed zoning changes to the former Kennedy-Kenrick High School site requested by Pottstown-based developer Hallman Retirement Neighborhoods and conduct a public hearing on a proposed billboards ordinance regulating billboard usage in the municipality. Other items of interest on the agenda include a rooming house ordinance, a zoo cooperation agreement and a resolution recognizing Norristown barbers.

Council will also approve a resolution promoting Norristown Police Officer Adam Schurr to Corporal and name recipients of the Paul Ginyard Memorial Awards.

You can download the full agenda for tonight's meeting in our PDF section and check back at 7:30 p.m. for a livestream of the meeting.
