Full Breakdown

Garage-sale signs fall under Henderson's residential temporary-sign rule, Development Code § 19.13.6.B.5.f. A Yard Sign Type I maxes out at 3 sq. ft., 4 feet tall, 2 feet wide; a Type II tops out at 4 sq. ft., 6 feet tall, 2 feet wide. Every temporary sign on the property combined, yard signs, flags, A-frames, can't exceed 40 sq. ft. at once. Because the sign sits on residentially zoned property (RS-1 through RM-10), it's exempt from the City's temporary-sign registration requirement that applies to commercial signs under § 19.13.6.B.1.a.

Violations & Fines

Signs over the size/height caps or exceeding the 40 sq. ft. property total are a public nuisance under HMC Ch. 15.12; the enforcement official can issue a correction notice and remove or impound the sign.
