Sec. 3. (a) If a county or municipality either: (1) subject to IC 8-23-20-10 , does not amend its zoning ordinance as necessary to provide for a special exception to the zoning ordinance for the relocation of an outdoor advertising sign; or (2) does not approve a variance to the zoning ordinance filed by the outdoor advertising sign's owner that conforms to the filing requirements; the county or municipality that did not approve the relocation of the outdoor advertising sign within the market area is responsible for the payment of full and just compensation for the outdoor advertising sign under IC 8-23-20-27 , including any costs and fees associated with a variance application, if applicable, to the outdoor advertising sign's owner. (b) A county or municipality's consideration of a special exception or variance may not be a basis to delay the appointment of appraisers under IC 32-24-1-9 . (c) If a county or municipality has not approved the relocation of an outdoor advertising sign located within its jurisdiction before the date an action under IC 32-24 is filed, the county or municipality must be named as a party to the action.
