Description: A sign permit must be issued for permanent and temporary signs, except for those signs listed in s. 17.0704 of the zoning code. A sign plan is required for developments with three or more tenants and any project within the Drexel Town Square Mixed Use Planned Development District (DTSMUPDD).
 
Decision-maker(s): Plan Commission.

Application fee: $550 for permanent signs.

Application deadline: 4 weeks prior to the Plan Commission meeting (normally held the second and fourth Tuesday of each month)

Forms: All application forms are posted on the City's website (Licenses & Permits).
 

General review process:
  1. Preliminary Consultation. Before submitting an application, the applicant and/or their agent may meet with staff to review applicable regulations and procedures and the proposed application.
  2. Submittal of application materials. The applicant submits an application and other required materials along with the application fee.
  3. Determination of completeness. Department staff reviews the submitted materials to determine if the application is complete. If the application is not complete, the applicant will be notified of incomplete or missing requirements.
  4. Plan Commission review. The Plan Commission reviews the application and makes a decision to (i) approve the petition as requested, (ii) approve the petition with changes, or (iii) deny the petition.
