Full Breakdown

Under Maple Grove City Code § 24-59(a)(9), rummage sale signs are allowed without a sign permit as one of the exemptions in the city's sign chapter. Signs may only be placed with the permission of the property owner, occupant, or other person controlling the private property where the sign is posted: signs on public right-of-way get separate treatment under § 24-58(f). The person holding the rummage sale must take down every related sign no later than 120 hours after it went up, and all such signs still have to meet the chapter's general size, placement, and safety standards.

Violations & Fines

Signs left up past the 120-hour deadline violate the sign chapter and can be ordered removed by the city's sign administrator; continued noncompliance exposes the responsible person to a misdemeanor citation under the Code's general penalty section.
