TUSTIN : New Sign Code Gets Initial Approval
The City Council has given initial approval to a new sign code for the city.
The new sign regulations were approved by the Planning Commission last month. The code, which sets standards for signs within the city, is the result of several years of work by the city’s Community Development Department and Planning Commission.
Those agencies met with members of the Chamber of Commerce, who suggested revisions to an earlier draft.
“I think what we have is a very workable sign code for the business community and the city,” said Angie Kardashian, chamber president.
Sign code changes include altering the definition of business signs to permit product, trade and service information on the signs; permitting festoons, balloons and light-bulb strings with certain limitations; modifying the size and height limits for real estate signs, and providing for exceptions from the code without getting a formal variance.
