PER CURIAM

      AND NOW, this 24th day of July, 2019, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is

GRANTED. The issue, as stated by petitioner, is:


      Where a real estate owner leases real estate or grants an easement to a
      billboard owner to situate a billboard upon the real estate, is a taxing district
      prohibited by the statutory exclusion for “signs and sign structures”
      contained in 53 Pa.C.S. §8811 (b)(4) from considering the rents and other
      payments from the billboard owner to the parcel owner when valuing the
      real estate for the purposes of real estate tax assessment?
