How does a business get a temporary sign permit?
Temporary accessory signs (signs that pertain to the property on which they are located) are permitted within all business districts and within a light industrial district. Temporary wall signs may be erected for a period of 14 days each, not more than four times within any 12-month period. They may be no larger than 36 square feet and may not extend beyond the wall to which they are attached. Temporary freestanding signs are only permitted as grand opening signs. These cannot not be greater than 16 square feet in area, not more than four (4) feet above the ground, and must have a setback of at least 10 feet from the property line. This option is available only within 6 months of the issuance of a certificate of occupancy. Temporary sign permits cost $10.00 and must be obtained at the Zoning Division.
