Board backs sign variance for Brandywine Ace, approves voluntary LED limits

Aug 24, 2026

The Pocopson Board supported a zoning variance allowing a new 13'7" freestanding sign at 1150 Pocopson Road, contingent on voluntary LED operating conditions (automatic brightness control, static messages, 3-second minimum), and moved the sign away from the right-of-way due to an upcoming PennDOT intersection project. Motion passed 3-0.
