City Council to review planners' OK of billboard

City Council to review planners' OK of billboard Pittsburgh City Council will look into a decision by planners to allow a 1,200-square-foot electronic billboard Downtown without any public hearing or vote, members said yesterday.

'The question is not about the sign at all. Most parties, including myself, seem to think it's appropriate,' said Councilman Ricky Burgess, who heads council's zoning and planning committee. 'We just want to make sure we're following a transparent process.'
Can a giant (20-foot by 60-foot) electronic sign be 'transparent?'
