Weld County's sign code is content-neutral, so political yard signs follow the same limits as other signs. Each lot may have up to five signs of up to six square feet each, plus, in Residential and Estate zones, one freestanding sign up to 32 square feet and five feet tall.
Weld County Code Chapter 23, Division 2 regulates signs by size and location, not by message, so it does not single out political signs. Section 23-4-90 lets each lot display up to five signs of up to six square feet each, in any zone, which typically covers yard-sign political speech. In Residential (R) and Estate (E) zones and in Agricultural subdivisions, a lot may also have one freestanding or banner sign limited to 32 square feet and five feet in height. Signs may not be placed in or over the county right-of-way, and the county may remove right-of-way signs without notice. Homes inside Greeley or Evans follow those cities' own sign codes.
Oversized signs, exceeding the count limits, or signs placed in the county right-of-way are enforced by Weld County Code Compliance; right-of-way signs may be removed and disposed of by the county without notice.
