2025_ODA_Sign_Removal_Data_Sheet.pdf

This document is a Sign Removal Data Sheet prepared by the Outdoor Advertising Office for the State of Tennessee in support of sign removal services contracting. The data sheet provides detailed specifications for six representative outdoor advertising signs located across Tennessee that are candidates for removal. The signs vary significantly in scope and complexity, ranging from a small 32 square foot wood sign with a 4-foot pole in Knoxville to a large 1,200 square foot wood sign with nine poles in Monteagle. Sign characteristics documented include physical property addresses, GPS coordinates, sign face dimensions and materials (wood, metal, or combination), pole specifications with heights, and electrical/lighting configurations. Examples include a 250 square foot illuminated Hardees cabinet sign in Morristown with metal pole infrastructure; a 756 square foot faded billboard sign on I-24 East in Jasper with eight wood poles; and a 672 square foot vinyl V-type sign on I-40 West in Memphis with metal construction and mounted lighting.

The data sheet serves as reference material for contractors bidding on sign removal services, establishing baseline examples of the types, sizes, and structural complexities they may encounter during project execution. The documentation indicates that removal projects will involve varied construction materials, electrical disconnection requirements in some cases, and pole foundation extraction ranging from single poles to multiple pole configurations. This standardized presentation of sign specifications enables bidders to develop accurate pricing and resource allocation strategies for the removal contract, with the understanding that actual removal sites will present comparable or varying levels of complexity based on their individual structural and electrical characteristics.
