(A) Identification and marking. Each sign hereafter erected or remodeled shall bear, in a permanent position thereon a clearly legible identification plate stating the name and address of the owner of the sign, and the person, firm, or corporation responsible for its construction, erection, and the date of erection. Electrical signs shall be marked with input amperages at the full load input similar to the CSA label or the UL (48).
(B) Sign identification tag. Each sign shall have a two by four inch sticker placed on one of the faces of the sign that identifies the permit number that was originally issued by the Administrator. This sticker shall be renewed on a biannual basis as provided for in this chapter.
(C) Obstruction to exits. No sign shall be erected, constructed, or maintained so as to obstruct any fire escape, required exit, window, or door opening used as a means of egress.
(D) Obstruction to ventilation. No sign shall be attached in any form, shape or manner which will interfere with any opening required for ventilation, except that such signs may be erected in front of and may cover transom windows when not in violation of the provision of the building or fire prevention codes.
(E) Clearance from high voltage power lines. Signs shall be located in such a way that they maintain horizontal and vertical clearance of all overhead electrical conductors in accordance with National Electrical Code specifications, depending on voltages concerned. However, in no case shall a sign be installed closer than 24 inches horizontally or vertically from any conductor or public utility guy wire.
(F) Drainage. The roofs of all marquees exceeding 40 square feet shall be properly guttered and connected with downspouts to storm sewers so that water will not drip or flow into public sidewalks or streets.
