Sign By‐law<br />
The Haldimand County Sign By‐law, By‐law No. 1064/10 (“the Sign<br />
By‐law”), generally regulates the use and application of signs<br />
within the County. Within commercial areas, the Sign By‐law<br />
permits a broad range of sign types, several of which are<br />
conducive to a vibrant and interesting downtown environment,<br />
including wall, projecting, canopy, ground, and portable signs.<br />
The Sign By‐law does prohibit a number of sign types that tend to<br />
interfere with the scale and character of downtown commercial<br />
settings, including roof signs, animated signs and third party signs.<br />
In terms of regulations, the Sign By‐law provides the following:<br />
