Toyota Dealer Wants Huge Billboard Over Routes 52 and 125
Initial review indicates the plan would not have significant environmental impacts.

An environmental review is under way of a proposal to install a huge electronic billboard over two highways in Santee.
The sign, called for by the Toyota Certified Center, would be atop a 70-foot pole over the area where state routes 52 and 125 meet, according to the San Diego Reader.
The review has found that since the sign would be visible in a largely commercial area and the portion of SR-52 is not considered scenic, the project would not have significant environmental impacts.
According to the report, the sign would loom about 40 feet over the highway adjacent to the dealership, on Fanita Drive near Mission Gorge Road.
According to the City of Santee blog, "Written comments on the environmental document, which will be accepted through August 12, may be emailed to the city at kmallory@cityofsanteeca.gov, or by mail directed to: Department of Development Services, Santee City Hall, 10601 Magnolia Ave., Santee, CA 92061."
