The Rapid city legal and finance committee has recommended a settlement to end two lingering lawsuits with Lamar, according to the Rapid City Journal.  The settlement includes

• a repeal of the city’s ban on digital billboards

• a reduction of distance between billboards from 2,000 feet to 1,500 feet

• protection of 60 sign credits sign that lamar stood to lose.

• a $100,000 payment to lamar

Lamar had lost a court case five months ago but had appealed the decision and the city wanted to avoid a lengthy and expensive litigation.  The city faces an additional lawsuit by Epic Advertising.
