As reported in the local Chicago press Frankfort’s long-standing prohibition of neon signs was overturned in 4-3 vote by the Village Board Monday at the request of business owners seeking attention from customer. Village officials, however, reassured residents that Frankfort isn’t likely to be mistaken for Las Vegas.
The town’s 51-page sign ordinance will be revised to permit businesses to display one neon “open” sign as long as it is no larger than 2 feet by 2 feet. The signs “cannot flicker, flash or change color” and can display only the word, “open,” in one color, Trustee Mike Stevens said.
Business owners, who said “open” signs are “”vital in the economic downturn,” first brought their concerns to the Plan Commission and the Land Use and Policy Committee, which recommended allowing them, Stevens said.
