SPECIAL PHOTO/City of Statesboro This photo, from the file provided Statesboro City Council, shows a three-sided Renfroe Outdoors digital billboard structure in Pooler similar to one the company has proposed to place at the intersection of Fair Road and Veterans Memorial Parkway in Statesboro. Since Renfroe's proposal requires variances and Statesboro City Council did not act on it last week, it is now subject to the city's six-month moratorium.
Statesboro currently has a six-month moratorium on granting any variances that would allow the placement of freestanding signs that would otherwise violate the city’s sign regulations. New signs that comply with the existing rules can still be erected.
