Kailua residents may post political campaign signs on private property under the general temporary sign rules, but size, placement, and public right-of-way restrictions apply during election season.
ROH Sec. 21-7.20 covers temporary sign standards, and Sec. 21-7.30 lists prohibited sign classes including most off-premise signs in public rights-of-way. Political campaign signs on private residential property are generally allowed without a permit if they meet district size limits and do not obstruct visibility at driveways or intersections. Signs in public right-of-way medians or utility poles along Kailua Road or Kalaheo Avenue are prohibited and can be removed by the city. Signs must be removed promptly after the election.
Signs in public right-of-way can be removed by the city, and repeat offenders face fines under the sign regulation enforcement process.
