Provides that upon a change of ownership of a sign permit or sign registration (instead of sign ownership), the new owner of the sign permit or sign registration shall notify the Department to confirm the change of ownership and supply the necessary information in writing or on a form provided by the Department to transfer (instead of to renew) the permit or registration for such sign at no cost within 120 days (instead of 60 days) after the change of ownership.
