Showing ordinances that apply to New Port Richey East, FL
New Port Richey East is an unincorporated community (population 11,015) in Pasco County, Florida. Because New Port Richey East is not an incorporated city, it does not have its own municipal code. Instead, Pasco County ordinances apply directly to properties here. The garage sale signs rules below are the ones that govern your area.
Pasco County permits small temporary garage sale signs (typically 4-6 sq ft) on private property only. Signs on utility poles, traffic signs, or in the public right-of-way are prohibited under LDC Ch. 504 and removed without notice. Must be taken down within 24 hours after sale.
Pasco County regulates garage/yard sale signs as temporary signs under LDC Chapter 504. Signs are limited to approximately 4 to 6 square feet and may be placed only on private property with the owner's consent. A small number of off-premises directional signs (usually 2 to 4) may be allowed on other private properties with permission, but placement in the public right-of-way, on traffic signs, on utility poles, or stapled to trees in the ROW is strictly prohibited. County code enforcement and Public Works routinely remove non-compliant signs, particularly along collector roads (SR 54, SR 52, US 19, Little Rd). Signs may be posted no earlier than 48 hours before the sale and must be removed within 24 hours after. Some community associations separately require a garage sale permit or limit frequency (typically no more than 2-4 sales per year per household). FDOT regulates state highway right-of-way separately and removes signs aggressively.
Signs on utility poles or in right-of-way: immediate removal by county, repeat offenders fined $25 to $50 per sign. Signs not removed within 24 hours of sale: fine $25 per day per sign. HOA violations: association-specific fines.
