Code Enforcement: Signs

STANDARDS PERTAINING TO THE POSTING OF 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; and inflatable and moving/revolving signs.
     
  • Garage/yard sale signs may be posted. However, 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. Call the Planning Department - 626-570-5034 - for more information on obtaining sign approval
    prior to installation.
