§ 25.5-20. Signs in residential areas.

Signs on lots or parcels zoned for residential use shall comply with the size, height and number requirements provided herein and shall otherwise conform to applicable district regulations with respect to permitted uses. Illumination of residential signs is hereby prohibited, except as provided herein. Temporary signs in residential areas, which are not otherwise provided for in this chapter, such as those constituting all or a part of seasonal or holiday decorations or displays, shall not be unlawful if any such signs are in place on a residential lot or parcel for less than sixty (60) days in any one (1) calendar year. Seasonal or holiday decorations or displays may contain illumination consistent with or typical of similar decorations or displays on residential lots or parcels in the same general area. Any such seasonal or holiday decorations or displays which are so out of proportion to decorations or displays on similar lots or parcels in the same general area as to create manifest incompatibility with adjacent uses or cause undue disruption to the area, such as attraction of crowds, excessive traffic, or noise plainly audible within any adjacent residential structure, are hereby prohibited.
