Signs

Sandy City has adopted regulations relative to outdoor advertising in order to create and maintain safe and aesthetically pleasing building elevations and streetscapes while allowing for adequate identification, communication and advertising for land uses in the City.  By adherence to these regulations the City seeks to achieve the following:

  • Signs that are compatible with their surroundings, and effectively index the environment while preserving the aesthetics and sense of order within the community.
  • Signs that are conducive to promoting traffic safety and add to the convenience and enjoyment of public travel by preventing visual distraction for motorists and protection of pedestrians.
  • Signs that preserve and enhance property values, increase the standard of living within the community, and serve to attract tourists to the City by establishing first-class business and commercial districts.
  • Signs that adhere to adopted fire, traffic and safety standards in order to insure the safety of residents and visitors to the City.

The regulations of Chapter 15A-26 of the Sandy Land Development Code are intended to apply to both on-premise and off-premise signs, but do not apply to interior signs, nor hand-held placards and other similar devices traditionally used for public protest and the non-commercial exercise of free speech.  Any noncommercial message may be substituted for any commercial message permitted under this ordinance.
