ATTENTION-ATTRACTING DEVICE
Any device or object visible from any public right-of-way that
is primarily designed to attract the attention of the public to a
business, institution, sign or
activity through such means, including but not limited to illumination,
color, size, or location. Attention-attracting
devices or objects oftentimes incorporate illumination, which may be
stationary, moving, turning, blinking (including animation), flashing or
laser. Attention-attracting
devices may or may not convey a message and can include, but are not
limited to, search lights, beacons,
strobe lights, strings of lights, barber poles, internally illuminated
translucent canopies or panels, electronically controlled message boards
(time/temperature signs,
gas price signs,
public service announcements, etc.) banners,
streamers, pennants, propellers and inflatable objects (including strings
of balloons) or other device designed to attract attention. Any sign,
which emits a sound, odor, or visible matter, is considered an attention-attracting
device. Approved traffic-control devices are not considered to
be attention-attracting
devices.
