Hillsborough County permits political signs on private property without permit under Land Development Code sign provisions and FL Statute 106. Signs protected by First Amendment; Reed v Town of Gilbert prohibits content-based regulation. Size and setback rules apply equally to all temporary signs. No signs in public right-of-way.
County sign code treats political signs as temporary signs with same rules as other non-commercial temporary signs. Typical limits: 6 square feet residential, 32 square feet non-residential, must be on private property with owner consent, must be removed within 7 days after election. Signs in county right-of-way or on utility poles removed without notice. FL 106.1435 governs campaign finance but not local sign size.
