   Outdoor signs shall comply with all applicable provisions of this Code and with the special provisions of Sections 13-96-030 to 13-96-080, inclusive, and Article XIII of Chapter 13-20. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a conflict between any outdoor sign provisions in the Code, including this Chapter 13-96, and Title 17 , which establishes city digital signs as exempt signs subject to the location, projection, height, sign face area and other regulations expressly set forth in such Title 17, the Title 17 regulations shall govern and control. City digital signs shall remain subject, however, to Section 13-20-675 and the structural safety and construction requirements of this Title 13 , including design load, compressive stress, wind pressure, and combustibility requirements.
