H101.2.6 Yard/Garage Sale Signs on Private Property.

Nor is a permit required for a yard or garage sale sign erected on the property of another person; however, such provision does not relieve the person placing the sign from getting the permission of the property owner to place the sign on the private property. In all cases signs announcing a yard or garage sale shall be in place for only 24 hours.
H101.2.7 Contractor Signs on Private Property. A permit shall not be required for a sign erected on private property that announces that a contractor is doing work on the piece of private property or within or on a structure on private property. In all cases signs announcing a contractor’s work on private property shall be in place only during the period of the contractor’s work.
H101.2.8 Auction Direction Signs on Private Property. A permit shall not be required for a sign erected on private property that indicates the direction to a public auction being held by an auctioneer that has obtained a license to conduct the auction - such provision does not relieve the person placing the directional sign from getting the permission of the property owner to place the directional sign on the private property.
