(

a) Notwithstanding

Section and the dissolution of a state redevelopment agency, and subject to subdivision (b), for purposes of this section, an advertising display location that advertised businesses and activities within the boundary limits of the City of Inglewood may continue to exist and advertise businesses or activities operating outside the redevelopment project area. It shall be considered an on-premises display, as defined in

Section 5490, if the advertising display meets all of the following conditions:

(1) The advertising display is located within the boundary limits of the City of Inglewood.

(2) The advertising display was constructed on or before January 1, 2012.

(3) The advertising display is adjacent to Interstate and located at either postmile 22.36L or 22.38L north of Century Boulevard.

(4) The advertising display does not cause the reduction of federal aid highway funds provided pursuant to

Section of Title of the United States Code. If an advertising display authorized under this

section is subject to a notice from the United States Department of Transportation, the Federal Highway Administration, or any other applicable federal agency to the state that the operation of that display will result in the reduction of federal aid highway funds as provided in

Section of Title of the United States Code, the display owner or operator shall remove all advertising copy from the display within days after the date the state notifies the owner or operator, and the City of Inglewood, by certified mail, of the receipt of the federal notice. Failure to remove the advertising copy pursuant to this paragraph shall result in a civil fine, imposed by the California Department of Transportation, of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per day until the advertising copy is removed.

The department shall not assume any liability in connection with the cessation of operation or removal of an advertising display or advertising copy pursuant to this paragraph. If the name of the owner or operator of the display is not indicated on the display, the state is only required to send the notice to the City of Inglewood. (

b) An advertising display described in subdivision (

a) may remain until January 1, 2023, after which date the display shall be removed, unless it otherwise qualifies as a lawful advertising display pursuant to this section, without the payment of any compensation to the owner or operator.

On and after January 1, 2022, the City of Inglewood may for good cause request from the department an extension beyond January 1, 2023, not to exceed the expiration of the redevelopment project area. “Good cause” for these purposes means that all of the following are satisfied: (1) there has been a finding by the City of Inglewood that the advertising display has had a positive economic impact on the redevelopment project area and provides a public benefit, (2) there have been no violations by the display owner or operator of this

section or of any applicable illumination standards in the previous years that have not been corrected within days of the date of mailing of a violation notice to the owner or operator by the department, and (3) there has been compliance by the owner and operator with all other standards adopted by the City of Inglewood or by the department. (

c) The City of Inglewood shall be responsible for ensuring that an advertising display is consistent with this

section and provides a public benefit. This provision shall not be construed to preclude any enforcement authority of the department under this chapter. (

d) The City of Inglewood shall annually certify to the department, by December of each year, that at least percent of the advertising copy, up to a maximum of square feet, is used to display the address or location or locations of the business or activity or to identify the route to the business or activity from the nearest freeway offramp. The department may independently review compliance with this certification. An advertising display subject to this

section shall be removed if it is in violation of this

section more than three times within a 10-year period and the violation has not been corrected within days of the date of mailing of a violation notice to the owner or operator by the department. (

e) The City of Inglewood shall have primary responsibility for ensuring that the advertising display authorized pursuant to this

section remains in conformance with all of the provisions of this section. If the City of Inglewood fails to do so within days of the date of mailing of a notice to the city by the department, the city shall hold the department harmless and indemnify the department for all costs incurred by the department to ensure compliance with this

section or to defend actions challenging the authorization of displays pursuant to this section.
