The regulations contained in this section shall apply to all signs and all zoning districts.
(A) Any illuminated sign or lighting device shall employ only light emitting a light of constant intensity, and no sign shall be illuminated by or contain flashing, intermittent, rotating or moving light or lights except clocks and time and temperature devices. In no event shall an illuminated sign or lighting device be placed or directed so as to permit the beams and illumination therefrom to be directed or beamed upon a public street, highway, sidewalk or adjacent premises so as to cause glare or reflection that may constitute a traffic hazard or nuisance.
(B) Signs shall not be placed on the roof of any building except in cases where approved by Council when it is determined that a roof sign would be the only means of adequate identification.

(D) Signs advertising goods and services not available on the premises are prohibited except as provided for in § 154.133.
(E) The property owner shall be responsible to construct and maintain all signs, including sign structures, etc., to be completely safe and free of hazard.
(F) A sign shall not be placed in or above any public right-of-way except publicly owned signs such as traffic-control signs and directional signs, projecting signs authorized by Council and signs with information directing and guiding traffic and parking on private property where authorized by Council.
(G) Signs with information directing and guiding traffic and parking on private property, including entrance and exit signs, shall be permitted on any private property in any zoning district. Size and location shall be in accordance with 154.131.
