<div dir="ltr">Good Morning All:
<div> </div>
<div>The City of Greenfield is looking into amending its sign regulations relative to sandwich board signs and electronic messaging signage. I am looking for information on the following:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>- Does your community require approval from a municipal entity (Licensing Commission, Board of Public Works, etc.) to allow sandwich board signs and projecting signs to be placed over or within within the public ROW?;</div>
<div>- Does your community's sign regulations have standards for sandwich board signs;</div>
<div>- Does your community have standards for electronic messaging signage?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you in advance for any information you can provide. Also, if you have a really good bylaw or ordinance on signage, please forward a copy or link to them.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Eric</div>
