Navajo County, AZ Sign Regulations: Holiday Displays (2026)

d of the Zoning Ordinance treats holiday and commemorative displays as a short-term use alongside carnivals and craft shows. Religious, patriotic, historic or similar displays or exhibits placed within yards, parking areas or landscaped areas are limited to thirty days of display in any one-year period for each exhibit. The section carves out a specific exemption for the most common case: no permit is required for a display or exhibit created by a homeowner, or by a religious, charitable, or educational organization, on that person's or organization's own property, for the purpose of commemorating a traditional holiday or historical event.

2 apply instead to a commercial or third-party operator staging a display for a fee or promotional purpose. Because Section 1911 as a whole overrides less restrictive zoning-district rules where it applies, the thirty-day limit controls even in a commercial or industrial district that would otherwise allow a longer standing display.
