While not completely agreeing with added restrictions both Harrington and Charles Welch, who had held out staunchly against earlier changes, said the new billboard ordinance is a "good compromise.” “We spent enough time on that,” said Harrington. The sundown clause included in earlier drafts, requiring nonconform ing signs to be taken down within a certain period of time, was Welch’s biggest concern. It was also the peg by which the courts overturned Fulton County's recent ordinance banning billboards.
