Re: Building Banner
Dear Owner/Manager:
Please be advised that City Ordinance 401.15.G.establishes regulations for signage, both permanent
and temporary within the City. This ordinance is known as the zoning ordinance and can be found in
its entirety on the City's webpage at www.cityofoakparkheights.com.
The business has had a banner placed at the front,since its opening several months ago,which has
been serving as its business sign along with the more recently placed piping sign at the roadway. City
Ordinance does not qualify banners as a wall or permanent sign. Additionally,the signage for the
development within which the business is situated has approved signage at the roadway.
With this letter you are directed to immediately remove the freestanding sign structure at the
roadway and to obtain a special event permit for temporary signage at the business. Additionally, if
you wish to display signage on the building wall—and your landlord approves you to do so—you will
need to apply for a permanent sign permit for your business signage.
I have enclosed a special event permit for your use;there is no charge for the permit. Failure to
obtain one prior to placing special event signage however is City Ordinance violation,which offense is
subject to a misdemeanor citation. Please obtain you special event permit prior to July 11,2014. If you
opt to not obtain one,the banner shall be removed no later than July 11, 2014.
Please email me with any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
Julie Itman, Building Official
