Scottsdale is well known for having high standards on the location and
quality of signage in the community. These standards have been set to support the physical
and economic business environment desired in the community. It is important, therefore, to
plan any building signage well ahead of expected occupancy.
As individual zoning classifications contain different rules on signage it
is important to check with the City before ordering a sign. The same would be true if you
are proposing to relocate a sign from another community or Scottsdale location. What is
appropriate or allowed in one location or community may not necessarily meet
Scottsdales sign code requirements.
It is possible in some locations that the property owner may have
restrictions on signage that exceed the Citys. Check with the property owner or
management company if you are going to be a tenant. There may also be restrictions
contained in property deeds. Information on the sign permit process can be gained from the
