The following regulations shall apply to those properties located in the Residential District. Any sign not expressly permitted by these regulations is prohibited.
(a) Purpose. Signage in the Residential District should be used for purposes typically accessory to single-family residential use and which do not impact neighboring residences. The sign regulations of this district are intended to limit the type, number, size and duration of signage permitted in the Residential District in order to prevent the creation of nuisances and impacts on the use and enjoyment of surrounding residential property.
