ORDER
PER CURIAM
AND NOW, this 6th day of April, 2020, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is
GRANTED, LIMITED TO the issue set forth below. Allocatur is DENIED as to all
remaining issues. The issue, as stated by Petitioner, is:
Whether the holding of the panel in this matter that a static vinyl advertising
sign could replace an electronic advertising sign was inconsistent with the
holding in Lamar Advertising Co. v. Zoning Hearing Bd. of the Municipality
of Monroeville, 939 A.2d 994 (Pa.Commw. Ct. 2007) that static vinyl
advertising signs and electronic advertising signs are so different that one
cannot simply replace the other without application for and issuance of a
new zoning and building permit?
