Home-based business signage in unincorporated Utah County is limited by the Land Use Ordinance. Small nameplate signs are typically permitted; commercial signage in residential zones is restricted.
The Utah County Land Use Ordinance restricts signage for home occupations in residential zones to maintain the residential character of neighborhoods. Typically, small nameplate signs (2 square feet or less) are permitted. Illuminated, animated, or large commercial signs are prohibited in residential zones for home-based businesses. Agricultural properties may have more latitude for farm-related signage. For specific sign allowances by zone, consult the Utah County Land Use Ordinance or contact the planning staff.
Sign removal order. Permit revocation risk. Code compliance fines $100 to $500.
