Sign bylaw created

By Mark Pavilons
King Township has created a new sign bylaw.
Council recently approved staff recommendations for the guidelines, following input from councillors and members of the public.
A working session on creating the new bylaw was held in early October and committee members discussed everything from special events signs to recognizing community groups. They singled out certain types of signs as being prohibited – inflatable signs, banner signs and advertising flags.
A maximum of three mobile signs are permitted on any one property and there's a 30-day break period between signs. This is meant to preserve aesthetic qualities in King and not allow a proliferation of the ugly roadside signs.
Home business signs are permitted, but estate signs are limited to exclude advertising businesses. With 2014 being an election year, election signs cannot be put up at their “headquarters” until after a candidate has officially filed their nomination papers.
The new bylaw strengthens the Township's planning and environmental provisions.
