Volusia County and FL cities allow political signs on private property per First Amendment and Reed v. Town of Gilbert (2015). No permits required. Signs in public rights-of-way prohibited. Typical size limit 32 sq ft residential. Removal required shortly after election.
Political signs on private property in Volusia County receive strong First Amendment protection. Under Reed v. Town of Gilbert, 576 U.S. 155 (2015), content-based restrictions on political signs are subject to strict scrutiny and generally unconstitutional. Volusia County LDC and city sign codes allow political signs on private residential property without permits, typically up to 32 square feet in residential zones and larger in commercial zones. Signs in public rights-of-way, on utility poles, on traffic signs, and in medians are prohibited and subject to removal without notice. F.S. §337.407 prohibits signs in state highway rights-of-way. Most Volusia jurisdictions require removal within 7-14 days after the election. HOA communities may impose additional placement restrictions, though F.S. §720.304(6) protects homeowners' right to display political signs on their property during specific election periods. Signs must not obstruct sight triangles at intersections per LDC.
Signs in right-of-way: removal by FDOT or county, possible fine $25-$100. Oversized signs on private property: notice to reduce within 7 days. Failure to remove post-election: fines $25-$50 per day after grace period. HOA fines capped under F.S. §720.
