I would like to obtain a sign for my business/building. What are the requirements and what is the process to get approval?

Signs require Planning Division approval and may require a building permit.  Sign regulations are based on building types, such as stand-alone or multi-tenant buildings, and other locational criteria.  Refer to Development Code Section 22.36.130 for general sign standards.

Please contact the Planning Division to check if a Comprehensive Sign Program applies to your business or building, which may further regulate the size, location, colors, and materials of your signs.  You obtain additional information by calling or visiting the Planning Division, or by completing an online Planning inquiry form.
