Sign Permit Application

With limited exceptions all signs, permanent and temporary, are required to obtain an approved sign permit from the Planning Division of the Economic and Community Development Department before they are put up. In many cases, signs will also need a building permit to be approved by the Building Division. 

To obtain a sign permit, bring a completed sign permit application to the Economic and Community Development Department along with the required exhibits and fee for review and approval.

Types of temporary signage and advertising include, but are not limited to the following:

  • Banner Signs
  • Flags
  • Balloons
  • Inflatable Objects
  • A-Frame Signs
