Sign Ordinance Amendment
Sign Ordinance Amendment
Following the Part I Zoning Ordinance Amendment to rewrite the sign regulations to be content-neutral, Part II will focus on a broader review of sign policies in Fairfax County. Initially, staff will conduct outreach and education, highlighting the existing regulations and soliciting feedback on what changes should be considered as a part of the Part II Amendment. Following this period of outreach, staff will begin consideration of the amendment. Potential topics may include:
- Expansion of the ability to request a Comprehensive Sign Plan (CSP) application in commercial areas (currently this request is limited to Planned Districts)
- Inclusion of review standards and submission requirements for all CSP applications
- Clarification of sign regulations for mixed-use development and multifamily buildings
- Review of roof-mounted sign regulations and electronic display (aka digital) signs
- Consideration of signage standards for mobile pickup parking spaces and drive through uses
- Revise regulations related to subdivision signs, signs on property actively marketed for sale, lease, or rent, and signs on property undergoing active construction, alteration, or renovation
