Garage sale signs subject to SCMC 17.51.080 private property sign regulations. Small sign projects typically approved over the counter at the Permit Center.
Santa Clarita permits temporary signs advertising garage and yard sales with specific regulations. Signs are typically limited to 4 to 6 square feet. A maximum number of directional signs, usually 3 to 5, may be placed off-premises to guide buyers. Signs must not be attached to utility poles, traffic signs, or public property. Placement in the public right-of-way varies by jurisdiction — some allow it temporarily, others prohibit it. Signs must be posted no earlier than 24 to 48 hours before the sale and removed within 24 hours after. Some cities require a garage sale permit which may include sign allowances. Wire-frame yard signs are the most common format.
Signs on utility poles: removal and fine $25 to $50. Signs not removed after sale: fine $25 per day. Excessive signs: warning, then citation.
