In unincorporated St. Lucie County, campaign signs are content-neutral non-commercial temporary signs. They must sit wholly on private property, and in single-family districts may not exceed 6 square feet each (32 cumulative), removed within 10 days of the event.
St. Lucie County's sign code (LDC Chapter IX) does not single out political signs; they are non-commercial temporary signs. LDC 9.01.02 requires temporary signs to be located wholly on private property with the owner's permission, and bars illumination. In single-family residential districts (RE, RS) the maximum non-commercial temporary sign size is 6 square feet per sign, with 32 square feet cumulative per parcel; agricultural districts allow larger. Under LDC 9.03.00(F), signs are prohibited in or over any public right-of-way and may not be attached to utility poles, street lights, curbs, or fire hydrants. Temporary signs must be removed within 10 days after the event they relate to. Port St. Lucie and Fort Pierce enforce their own sign codes.
Political signs in the right-of-way, on utility poles, or exceeding size limits are prohibited signs and may be removed by St. Lucie County; abandoned or oversized signs draw Code Compliance notices and fines.
