Important Sign Ordinance Enforcement Information

Local Cities Enforce Sign Ordinances... Sometimes!

A fine of several hundred dollars can result from the City of Plano's current campaign of sign ordinance enforcement. Recently one of our members pointed out that he and other REALTORS® had received citations (read that “tickets”) for open house or other signs. This resulted from city staff implementing an “enforcement campaign” for the existing sign ordinance that has been on the books for several years.

Bottom line is:

- our local cities all have sign ordinances,
- they are all different,
- they are enforced with various levels of aggressiveness, and,
- the enforcement level changes from time to time.
