The first thing you need to do is to check with your local city or county planning department to learn what the regulations for the address where you want the sign placed.



What they will tell you first is whether the zoning in that area allows for a sign, and if so, what is the maximum size for that sign, if you are allowed to have an internally illuminated sign or neon sign or electronic readerboard or just a monument type sign, or even just a banner or a 4 foot by 4 foot plywood sign. Not to worry, there’s a regulation for everything you do in your business in most 1st World countries (such as the US, Canada, and W.Europe).
Assuming that you can put a sign in the zone you want to place your business in, they will require you to provide some sort of drawing that shows how your sign will be installed.
