Sign Permitting Without Delays or Redesigns

Sign permitting is where most projects slow down—not because of complexity, but because of incomplete or inaccurate submissions.

IdentiCom manages permitting with precision, so approvals move forward smoothly.

Why Sign Permitting Is More Than Paperwork

Every city, township, and county has its own sign ordinances—and many contradict one another. Size limits, height restrictions, illumination rules, setbacks, zoning overlays, historic districts, and landlord requirements all intersect.


Permitting problems usually come from:

  • Incomplete or inaccurate drawings

  • Misinterpretation of local sign codes

  • Missing electrical or structural details

  • Submissions made without site verification

  • Late discovery of zoning or landlord constraints


IdentiCom prevents these issues before plans are submitted.
