Sign Regulation

Programs that are responsible for enforcement of ordinances which establish standards for the design, engineering, placement, construction and/or content of roadside advertising and associated structures as well as free standing, wall-mounted, and marquee signs that are located along city streets. The program may also investigate reports from the public regarding illegally posted or obstructing signs on public or private property and request the removal of problematic signs from public property. The objective of sign ordinances in most communities is to meet the need of businesses, public places and recreational sites to make their location known to shoppers, travelers and tourists while maintaining an attractive environment where people want to spend time (and money).
