Residential holiday displays and lighting are unregulated in West Jordan provided they do not obstruct public right-of-way, create traffic hazards, or exceed noise limits. No permit required. Commercial displays exceeding 200 sq ft need Title 13 sign review.
West Jordan follows a permissive approach to residential holiday decorations protected under First Amendment expression. Homeowners may install seasonal lights, inflatables, and nativity scenes without permits provided the displays stay on private property, do not flash/strobe at frequencies causing traffic distraction, and comply with quiet hours (10 PM–7 AM) if music is involved. Commercial properties with displays exceeding 200 square feet or including illuminated signage must apply for a temporary sign permit ($25 fee) under Title 13-7. Displays cannot block sidewalks, fire hydrants, or visibility triangles. Utah Code §57-8a-218 protects homeowners' right to display the American flag and prohibits HOA bans on reasonable holiday displays.
