Sec. 28-4. Permits.
It shall be unlawful for any person to erect, structurally
alter, rehang or replace any sign or outdoor display structure
within the city without first submitting an application for an
erection permit to the building inspector. Such application
shall be accompanied with plans and specifications showing
the dimensions, materials and details of construction. The
application shall contain the written consent of the owner or
lessee of the land or building upon which the sign is to be
erected for such erection. A fee of five dollars shall accompany
each application.
A permit shall not be required for the mere changing of
painting or the reposting of advertising copy of display matter
on signs or theater marquees designed for the use of replaceable
copy, provided such change does not violate the provisions
of this chapter.
The building official shall not issue a permit for any sign
unless it has been determined that the proposed sign is in
conformity with any approved site plan affecting the property
upon which the sign is to be placed. (9-5-72.)
