Signs in residential zoning districts shall generally be discouraged in an effort to preserve the residential character of adjoining neighborhoods. However, the department may, on a case-by-case basis, approve signs which are not obtrusive due to color, size or general design, provided that no such sign shall be lighted or exceed two square feet in size. In nonresidential zoning districts zoning requirements shall apply.
