      s 370.15. Advertising Signs.

      (a) General.

      (1) The owner of a displaced advertising sign eligible under Section 
      370.11 (a) is eligible to receive a payment for actual reasonable moving 
      and related expenses which include:

      (A) Actual reasonable expenses in moving his advertising sign as provided 
      in subsection (b) of this section;

      (B) Actual direct losses of tangible personal property as provided in 
      subsection (c) of this section; and

      (C) Actual reasonable expenses in searching for a replacement sign site as 
      provided in subsection (d) of this section.

      (2) An owner of an advertising sign who is otherwise eligible for moving 
      payments will not be eligible if he moves his sign to a site in violation 
      of State, Federal or local regulations.

      (3) The provisions of this paragraph do not apply separately to an 
      advertising sign owned by and located on the business or farm being 
      displaced. Those signs considered personal property, including signs 
      eligible under Section 370.11 (m) are to be considered items of the 
      business or farm and included under the provisions of Section 370.13.

      (b) Actual Reasonable Moving Expenses. The owner of a displaced sign may 
      be reimbursed for his actual, reasonable moving expenses in accordance 
      with the provisions of Section 370.13 (b), (1) and (2).

      (c) Actual Direct Losses of Tangible Personal Property. The owner of a 
      sign may be reimbursed for actual direct losses when he is entitled to 
      relocate the sign but does not do so. The amount of such loss will be the 
      lesser of:

      (1) The depreciated reproduction cost of the sign as determined by the 
      Department; or

      (2) The estimated cost of moving the sign.

      (d) Actual Reasonable Expenses in Searching for a Replacement Sign Site.

      (1) The owner of a displaced advertising sign may be reimbursed for his 
      actual reasonable expenses in searching for a replacement sign site not to 
      exceed $100.00. Such expenses may include transportation expenses, meals, 
      lodging away from home and the reasonable value of time actually spent in 
      search, including the fees of real estate agents or brokers if actually 
      required and paid for by the displaced sign owner.

      (A) Receipted Bills. All expenses claimed except value of time actually 
      spent in search must be supported by receipted bills.

      (B) Time Spent in Search. Payment for time actually spent in search shall 
      be based on the applicable hourly wage rate for the person conducting the 
      search but may not exceed $10.00 per hour. A certified statement of the 
      time spent in search and hourly wage rate shall accompany the claim.
