§ 25.5-13. Subdivision, development and model center identification.

(a)

Subdivisions and developments may use signs located at entrances to such subdivisions and developments to identify the development and the properties and amenities therein. Such signs may be permitted when such sign locations and sizes have been approved as shown on the final master plan for the project as approved in the rezoning or master plan process pursuant to other land development regulations. If such signs are not shown on the final master plan, they may still be permitted if they meet the requirements of this chapter for a clear-site triangle and setbacks. Such signs, however, shall not be located upon any road right-of-way, public or private, unless authorized by a lease executed pursuant to other provisions of the Hernando County Code of Ordinances with respect to public rights-of-way. Maintenance of existing entrance signs on county right-of-way is the responsibility of homeowners' associations or the developer and not the county.

(b)

A model center within a platted subdivision may identify itself with a sign which may be erected within one hundred (100) feet of each side of the entrance roadway to the subdivision, and by one (1) sign which may be erected within five hundred (500) feet of each side of the entrance roadway to the subdivision. Said signs may be erected for a period of no more than four (4) years after the last phase, unit or area of the subdivision has received final plat approval. Such signs shall be no greater than thirty-two (32) square feet each, must be erected on property owned by the developer, and shall be placed outside of the right-of-way. A maximum of six (6) total flags may be displayed at the entrance to said subdivision.
