Code Enforcement: Signs

  • Signs may not be posted in the public right-of-way, on public property (except governmental signs, signage on city-approved transit shelters, and real estate open house signs), or in a median that has not been specifically placed there for traffic directional purposes;
  • Additional prohibited signs include (but are not limited to):
    - portable signs;
    - temporary signs and banners on buildings or windows;
    - flags, pennants and streamers;
    - inflatable and moving/revolving signs.
  • Garage/yard sale signs are allowed; however, the rule is that only one single-face sign, 2-feet by 3-feet may be posted on the premises where the sale is to be conducted for the duration of the sale and must be removed immediately thereafter. No off-premises signs may be posted. Do not nail or place signs on trees, utility poles, sign posts, city parkways or other city property. A sign may be placed in your own vehicle, but the vehicle must be properly parked on the street to advertise your sale.
  • There are requirements for the placement of business signs. Contact the Planning Department - (626) 570-5034 - for more information on obtaining sign approval prior to installation.
