Tampa City Council is considering allowing the placement of digital billboards within the city limits. Currently, the boards have been limited to roads such as Dale Mabry, the Veterans Expressway and I-75, but this settlement would give advertisers digital coverage on the other major roads such as I-275 and I-4.
Some detractors of digital billboards envision bright, animated signs like the ones seen on the Las Vegas strip. However, the new locations would still be limited to static images which change every 8 seconds. With the use of dimming sensors, the digital signs don't look much different from a traditional billboard, as you can see in this video.
According to a poll conducted by Bay News 9, citizens are in favor of allowing the signs, which are also used for public services such as Amber Alerts and FBI wanted ads. View Poll
