Sign Permits
All permanent, temporary or replacement signs require a sign permit before construction or modification. Illuminated, neon, or fluorescent signs also require an electrical permit. Zoning ordinances provide the following standards for signs in the City of Golden:
Signs shall not be placed in the public right of way, or allowed to visually obstruct or impede pedestrian or vehicular movement. In addition, signs shall not be placed on any fence, telephone pole, or traffic control device. Flotation devices are not allowed as signs.
Temporary signs are allowed for no more than 180 days. Permits may be renewed upon reapplication and repayment of fees.
For more information about sign regulations, call the Planning Department at 303-384-8097. To receive a permit application, contact the Golden Public Works Department at 303-384-8151. A sketch of the sign, location of the sign, and sign measurements must accompany the permit.
