Guidelines for Placement of Signs on Town Property
 Generally (except on the Town Green) no private signs are permitted on town property except those authorized by the Town Manager. Signs on other town property are typically limited to those that relate to town events or for safety.
THE TOWN GREEN
Granby has a rather small Town Green. It consists of a portion of land in the center of town along the intersection of state highways, Route 10/202 (Salmon Brook Street), Route 189 (North Granby Road and Hartford Avenue) and Route 20 (East Granby Road).
Signs should only be placed along Salmon Brook Street (Route 10/202), along the west side of the Town Green.
Recommended Guidelines for Placement of Signs along the Town Green:
· Suggest signs be only for non-profit Granby events
· Only one sign per event
· Not more than two event signs per year
· Maximum size should be 16 sq. ft. or not more than 8 ft. high (no “wire-type signs”)
· Make sure sign is safely secured to the ground
· Safety – be sure sign does not obstruct sight line or create a hazard by glare or illumination
· Duration – not more than 14 days
· Remove sign as soon as event is over
· Banners only in designated areas. Check with Town Manager's Office.
· No commercial or business advertisement signs
· No tag sale or tag sale direction signs
· Help keep the total number of signs being displayed to 10
· Identify your sign by writing a name, address, or phone number and placement date on the sign (magic marker on back of sign is acceptable)
No signs are permitted at the Town Hall Complex or on other town green areas, except as approved by town. No signs are permitted at town parks except as permitted by Park Rules.
Please contact the Town Manager’s Office at 844-5300 if you have any questions.
