Electronic Billboard Safety Debate

A pair of electronic billboards that some drivers call, "a distraction" can stay put for now.
The bright, flashing billboards are on both sides of I-75 at the 12th Street exit in Covington.
Covington's Code Enforcement Board said it will allow the billboards if their owner gets the proper state permits.
However, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet wants the electronic billboards removed. It says the law does not allow them, and they could be unsafe.
Covington's Code Enforcement Board said the signs are not a distraction. The owner of the billboards has until December 31st to get the permits.
