Where can you place signs? This handy guide was in the Enterprise recently. Signs are valuable, so please don't put them someplace illegal. They'll be confiscated! Also, our Democratic candidates look bad if we put signs where they don't belong...
Under WA Administrative Code 468-66, temporary political signs are allowed on private property visible from state highways. The property owner must consent, and the sign must comply with the WAC, as well as any local regulations. They must also meet the following requirements:
- Maximum size of 32 square feet in area
- Removed within 10 days following the election
- Utility poles are typically located inside the right of way. So, NO signs between the pole and the state highway.
- Where a fence separates the right of way from private property, NO signs between the fence and the state highway.
Darlene Johnson had a sign in front of the DMV on Jewett in White Salmon. That property is not private property. The sign was removed, but before I left on vacation I noticed a sign for someone else had been placed there.
