If the church owns or rents the billboard, they should be able to tell the county to pound sand, unless the county has specific billboard-content regulations that have been violated.
If the church doesn’t own or rent the billboard, then why did they put their sign on it?
From the article, I gathered that the church just put up the new billboard — no rent or anything. In other words, they just commandeered the space. The only legitimate complainant I would listen to would be the billboard owner. Other than that, kiss off.

From the article, it appears they don’t own the property where their church is currently housed, so I don’t know what their rights to the billboard are.
It says that there had been a dilapidated realty sign there for 20 years and nobody complained. Just from an aesthetic perspective, I suspect the current billboard is an improvement.
