E. The California legislature specifically empowered local entities to enter into relocation agreements on whatever terms are agreeable to the display owner and the local entity. F. The City and Lamar desire to enter into this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing provisions to affect relocation of the Existing Signs in a mutually agreeable manner as provided and allowed pursuant to California law referenced above.
