Political signs are allowed on private property with owner consent. West Valley City does not impose size or duration limits that differ from commercial signs, consistent with Reed v. Town of Gilbert.
Political signs are treated as temporary signs under West Valley City Municipal Code Title 7 Sign Regulations. They are permitted on private property with owner permission and may not be placed in the public right-of-way, on utility poles, or on traffic signs. Signs must not obstruct sight triangles at intersections or driveways. Post-election removal is encouraged within a reasonable time. Size limits generally mirror other temporary signs at 6 to 8 square feet in residential zones.
