Rogers, AR Sign Regulations: Political Signs (2026)

Under the Rogers sign code (Sec. 5.8.7.12), political campaign signs 'are allowed starting 60 days before an election and must be removed within five days afterward.' Size is keyed to placetype: in neighborhood areas signs 'may not exceed four square feet'; in corridor and industrial/technology placetypes signs 'are limited to 32 square feet'; and in all other placetype areas signs 'are limited to eight square feet.' The code also bars placement 'in city rights-of-way, on bridges, utility poles, traffic signals, or street signs,' and states that placement on private property 'requires the owner's consent.' These are content-neutral time, place, and manner limits applied to temporary signage. At the state level, Arkansas Code 7-6-228 governs campaign-sign content: campaign signs and printed materials must clearly carry the words 'Paid for by' followed by the name of the candidate, committee, or person who paid for them, and on a two-sided sign that disclosure must appear on both sides. Separately, the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) enforces a prohibition on campaign signs within state highway rights-of-way; ARDOT removes unlawfully placed signs and holds them for owner pickup. So a Rogers resident must satisfy both the city's timing and size limits and the state's disclosure and right-of-way rules. Confirm current details with the Rogers sign administrator before posting.
