§ 9128.33. Subdivision Directional Signs - Specifications.

The written and illustrative message on each subdivision directional sign shall be the same as quoted in the application and as shown on the elevation plan except as otherwise permitted or required by the Director, and shall be limited to necessary travel directions, the name of the land development project to which it pertains, a characteristic trademark or insignia and other such information describing the character of the development as may be specifically approved by the Director, provided, however, that such information shall be auxiliary to said sign's primary purpose of providing travel directions. Said sign shall not contain any other advertising.

An unobstructed open space shall be maintained to a height of eight (8) feet below each sign except for structural supports. Where topographic features create an unnecessary hardship or unreasonable regulation or make it obviously impractical to require compliance with this provision, the Director may modify this requirement.

Not more than four (4) sign structures containing not more than a total of eight (8) sign faces shall be permitted at any one time for a development, regardless of the number of units, tract maps or phases within the total development.

Such signs shall be located only within four (4) miles from the exterior boundary of the development to which they relate.

Such signs shall not be located within the right-of-way of any street or alley, or along an established or existing freeway which has been designated as a freeway route by the State of California, or along a scenic highway.

Identification shall be placed on each such sign indicating the permit number, sign owner and expiration date.
