Garage sale signs in Safety Harbor are regulated as temporary signs under LDC Article XII. They must be placed on private property with permission, kept small, and removed promptly after the sale ends.
Safety Harbor permits temporary garage sale signs as a class of temporary noncommercial signs under Article XII of the Land Development Code. Signs must be placed only on private property with the owner's consent, generally cannot exceed approximately four to six square feet, and must be removed within 24 hours after the sale ends. Posting signs on utility poles, traffic signs, trees in the right-of-way, or in medians is prohibited. The city's code enforcement officers routinely sweep rights-of-way and remove non-compliant signage. Garage sales themselves are limited in frequency under Chapter 5 of the Code of Ordinances.
Signs placed in the right-of-way may be removed without notice. Repeat violations or large illuminated signs can lead to code enforcement citations and daily fines.
