Garage-sale signs are temporary residential signs in Anderson. No Improvement Location Permit is required for residential signs, but they may not be lit, must sit at least 15 feet from side or rear lot lines, and may not be placed in the public right-of-way or on utility poles.
Anderson's Zoning Code treats a garage-sale sign as a temporary residential sign (any residential sign other than a home-occupation or subdivision-entrance sign). An Improvement Location Permit is not required for residential signs. However, signs in residential zones may not be lighted in any manner and must be located no closer than 15 feet to a side or rear property line. Signs within a public right-of-way (except official governmental signs) and signs affixed to utility poles, light standards, trees, or transit shelters are prohibited. Temporary signs must be removed once the activity they serve ends.
Signs in the right-of-way or on poles may be removed without notice, and repeat offenders can be cited by Code Enforcement.
