If I hold a permit, what is the process to apply for a new location?

Answer:

If the permit holder has an interim permit, and has determined a proposed location, they can apply on-line using the interim permit(s). If the permit holder has a permit associated with a built sign, the sign and sign structure would need to be removed, and that permit exchanged for an interim permit.
Prior to applying for a location approval, the permit holder should be aware that the location needs to meet, but is not limited to, the following requirements:
1,000 feet spacing between permitted signs along freeways and interstate
500 feet spacing between permitted signs along non-freeway
Landowner consent
Zoning of commercial, industrial or business (if the location is beyond 1 mile of an incorporated municipality, it shall be within 800 feet of an active commercial or industrial business on the same side of the highway)
If the location is unzoned, it shall be within 800 feet of an active commercial or industrial business on the same side of the highway)
Further questions on the process and/or to obtain application instructions, contact the Highway Advertising Specialist, Melissa Staffeld at (517) 335-2209.
