City Permits – Better to plan ahead
Author: Amanda
For new business owners or those looking to buy a new business, it’s important to keep in mind that to place up a new permanent business sign or to update a pre-existing one, you need to have a city permit. City permits, their rules and regulations vary from city to city. For example, Dublin may have very strict rules on permanent signs going to be placed on the downtown street because they are aiming to keep a certain historic district feel. If you have a sign placed without having a city permit the city can request for your sign to be taken down and on certain occasions fines can be charged.
The process of waiting for an approval on an application can take weeks, and there is no way to expedite the process. To save yourself headaches and the struggle of making sure your new business has a sign on its grand opening day, take the time to research and apply for a permit in your area.
