Bill No. 2053 amends Section 1273 of Title 69 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to definitions related to outdoor advertising. The bill introduces a new definition for "playground," specifying it as an outdoor space with permanently affixed playground equipment primarily used for children's play, while excluding spaces where such equipment is an accessory to a commercial enterprise and equipment on privately owned residential properties intended for personal use.
The bill also establishes that the new legal language will take effect on November 1, 2025. This amendment aims to clarify the definitions within the context of outdoor advertising regulations, ensuring that the term "playground" is distinctly defined to avoid ambiguity in future applications of the law.
