All elements of signs including, without limitation, supports, poles, lights, and temporary construction materials, must be maintained in good and safe structural condition. Permittees, persons who erected or posted the sign, persons owning the property or building who granted permission for the sign to be erected or displayed, and the owner of the real property upon which the sign was erected or posted, regardless of that owner's knowledge of the sign, are all jointly responsible for sign maintenance. All successors in interest to these persons are equally responsible for sign maintenance.
