This page describes regulations for temporary banners and inflatable displays in commercial zone districts. 

As a commercial property and/or business owner it is crucial to know and understand your signage allowance. Every business is allotted square footage for permanent signs. Those are the signs permanently affixed to the building facade, monument and freestanding signs.

Businesses can also utilize temporary signs over and above the permanent signage allotted. Temporary signs advertise a sale, grand opening, special event or liquidation. A City permit is required for all temporary banner and inflatable displays.
