(A) Road name signs that are used for the purposes of addressing a road, public or private, shall
be required to be legible and accurate with the information they attempt to convey. The signs should display only the state road number and correct name, as approved by the county.
(B) In the case of private roads, they shall display the official name as agreed by petition of landowners, or in absence of such petition, may display either a number that indicates the location that it intersects with a state road or a name assigned by the E-911 Addressing Coordinator.
(C) Any and all signs that may be construed as contradictory in any form shall hereby be unlawful to erect on or near state rights-of-way.
(D) All road name signs shall be a six-inch vertical dimension sign.
(E) Road name signs or “blades” shall be made of reflective green sheeting with the road name in reflective white letters on both sides. Entry/exit road signs from a private road that abuts a public road must use this sign style and cannot be a custom-made street sign.
(F) In residential districts, at least one road name sign shall be mounted at each intersection.
(G) Whenever physical conditions permit, signs shall be located on the right hand side of the road as one approaches the intersection.
(H) Signs shall be located to optimize nighttime visibility.
(I) Only road names approved by the county shall be placed on signs.
