You may need a Sign Permit if:

  • You are installing a new permanent sign.
  • You are modifying the size, height, or location of an existing sign. 
  • You are installing an illuminated sign.
  • You are replacing a sign and changing its dimensions or structure.

Application Materials:

  • Completed Sign Permit application form
  • Scaled drawing showing sign dimensions
  • Complete site plan showing proposed location
  • Elevation drawing (for freestanding or wall-mounted signs)
  • Illumination details (if applicable)
