Standard Street Sign Requirements

All Street Signs for the Development need to be installed and have passed Addressing Inspection prior to Building Permit approval. It is the developer/owners responsibility to install all street signs for the development, prior to building permit approval. Street signs must be installed and inspected for all new developments, as the address for any type of building permit will be assigned to the internal street(s).

Chapter 40 Building and Construction, Code of Ordinance, Part 10 Street Signs, Sec 40.231

Street Sign Basics

• There shall be no use of punctuation (hyphen, period, apostrophe) on street signs.
• Cross blades are required at all intersecting streets and signs shall be positioned so that the blades are parallel to the corresponding street.
• Sign blades must have the approved street name/spelling and proper street designation.
• ‘All’ street signs are to be installed for the development, prior to approving any building permits.
• Incorrect signs will be required to be corrected.
• If the street(s) are not built and permits are being submitted, signage can be placed at the main entry to the development and as roads are built, the street signs can be moved to their correct location.
• An inspection of all installed street signs is required. Signs shall reflect the street name and designations approved by E911 Addressing, as noted through Development Review project comments.
