In unincorporated Snohomish County a single-family residence may display one unlighted name sign up to two square feet per face. Real-estate signs advertising sale or lease may be up to 15 square feet per building site under SCC 30.27.010.
SCC 30.27.020 lets a residence display one unlighted single- or double-faced sign not exceeding two square feet per face containing the occupant's name. SCC 30.27.010 permits signs up to 15 square feet per building site advertising the sale or lease of the property on which they are displayed. All signs must meet the general safety rules: they may not obstruct a motorist's vision entering or leaving a right-of-way, and at intersections must allow an unobstructed sight distance of at least 300 feet. The county code has no separate garage-sale-sign category, so temporary yard-sale signs are governed by these residential and general sign standards; off-premises signs in the right-of-way are restricted.
Signs exceeding size limits, blocking sight distance, or illegally placed in the public right-of-way may be removed by the county and can draw code-enforcement action.
