[OMS_MANAGERS] A-frame sign design guidelines

[Kris Gullo]

Hello,

 

Here is our recently updated information sheet. We sent it out with our
membership renewals. It will provide an introduction and background to the
discussions that I will be having with businesses that are out of
compliance. Here, this tends to be a pretty subjective topic, and one that
requires perseverance. We thought about permitting in order to have greater
control, but we felt that would require a lot of administration, and could
be perceived as less than supportive, at a time when our businesses need all
the help they can get.

Here is our standard

 

PORTABLE SIGNS IN RIGHTS-OF-WAY: Subject to the restriction of this
Resolution, portable signs may be permitted on sidewalks in the public

Hello all,

 

The City of Sandy recently established a committee to review the design of
A-frame (sandwich board) signs. Currently we have a required standard
A-frame design. Our goal is to allow for more creativity and flexibility in
design. 

 

I'm looking for examples of design standards and review procedures from
other communities who conduct design review of A-frames.

 

Any input is appreciated.
