Are flashing arrow signs legal in the City of Tupelo?
This type of sign is a portable sign and is legal for placement in most commercially zoned areas of the City if it is be the only ground sign for a business. These signs are not allowed in the Downtown Overlay District. The sign can not flash, but it can be connected to electrical power and lighted. It can not be connected by an extension cord across a parking lot or sidewalk because that is an electrical code violation. These signs must be located at least 15′ from a street and 100′ away from any other ground sign. A sign permit is required for placement of this type of sign.
