Sunrise does not require a permit for a residential garage or yard sale — the city's special-event rules exempt events on residential property. The main rule is signage: no more than two yard-sale signs, on your own property only.
A homeowner garage or yard sale needs no city permit in Sunrise. The city's permitting scheme covers commercial temporary outdoor sales and special events, and it states that special-event permits are not generally required for events on residential property. The one active restriction is signage: residents may place no more than two yard-sale signs, and only on their own property. Signs taped or wired to trees or posts, or set in medians or along roadsides, are prohibited and will be removed by Community Enhancement and Code Compliance officers, who patrol every weekend. General nuisance and property-maintenance rules still govern cleanup.
Illegal yard-sale signs on trees, poles, medians, or rights-of-way are removed and discarded by code compliance. Leaving merchandise or signs out after the sale can draw a nuisance citation under Sec. 9-2.
