Outdoor Sign Considerations
Be sure to be aware of your city ordinances that govern and limit sign size, type and location and sometimes color for your area.
Regulations are based on the type of area the sign is located in (commercial, residential, etc.)
Permits are almost always required. Your local sign companies are experts on sign ordinances and the permitting process.
