Edmonton Portable Sign Bylaws
Most jurisdictions have regulations in place regarding the placement of portable signs. Some of the cities and towns have very pro-business bylaws while others continue to tie the hands of business owners and restrict their ability to advertise on their own property.
General Sign Regulations for Edmonton Portable Sign Bylaws include(but not limited to):
• No sign shall be erected, operated, used or maintained in such a way that its size, esign and position, obstructs the view or shall be confused with an official traffic sign, signal or device nor obscures a driver decision point.
• No sign shall use display lights resembling flashing lights usually associated with danger or those used by police, fire, ambulance and other emergency vehicles nor use spot or reflector lights that create a hazard to traffic on public roadways.
• All Temporary Signs shall have a permanent tag, label, plate, marking or other means of identifying ownership of the Sign.
• An approved Sign is not an approval for development on the Site.
• No part of any sign may project beyond the property lines unless otherwise specified in a Sign Schedule.
• The intensity of exposed bulbs on a Sign, excluding Digital Signs, shall not exceed 1100 lumens.
• The fine for placing signs that do not follow the Sign Regulations is $250, unless otherwise stated in the Bylaw
