Garage-sale signs are temporary signs allowed on private property with the owner's permission, but they generally may not be placed in the public right-of-way, on utility poles, or on traffic signs, and must be removed promptly after the sale.
Layton and other Davis County cities treat garage-sale signs as temporary signs under their sign codes. They are permitted on your own property and, with permission, on other private property, but placement in the street right-of-way, on public poles, or where they block visibility is prohibited and the signs may be removed. Most cities expect removal within a day or two of the sale's end. Davis County applies comparable rules on unincorporated land. A permit is typically not needed for a small yard-sale sign, but confirm local size limits.
Signs left in the right-of-way or after the sale can be removed by the city, and repeated placement may bring a fine.
