Sign Ordinance Review

Hi Frank,

the link to the Sign ordinance for the city of Chicago: http://www.amlegal.com/alpscripts/get-content.aspx
I am trying to unfold the rules, but I’m not sure how to read it to understand it. I would appreciate your input so I can ensure future success in reading them.

Thank you,
Paul P.

Paul,

I called some outdoor guys in Chicago, but nobody would tell me where to look as they said it “would be fostering competition”, so I researched it myself.

The complete ordinance is 42 pages long and can be found at: www.cityofchicago.org/content/dam/city/depts/bldgs/general/SPR/ComprehensiveSignPermitProcess2009revised.pdf
