In residential areas, one For Sale, For Rent or For Lease sign is permitted at the location of the residence that is for sale, for rent or for lease. This sign is limited to 8 square feet of sign area per face and to a maximum height of 6 feet.

In addition, you may place signs in other locations pointing to your residence provided that these signs are located on private property and that you have obtained permission for placing the sign from the property owner. To be on private property, signs must typically be behind the sidewalk or approximately 11 feet back from the curb of the street. These "pointer" signs are limited to three square feet in area and are allowed only between Friday at 6 a.m. and Sunday at 9 p.m.

Signs are not permitted in street medians, in public parks, or at highway interchanges.
