Failure to conform to these requirements may result in delays in the rezoning process. For further information, contact the Planning Office staff at (248) 871-2540.
The proponent of a rezoning request will be required to submit a sign location plot plan with the application for rezoning. The sign location plot plan must be reviewed and approved for compliance with location and specification requirements by the Planning Office prior to submission of the rezoning application.

A corner lot, or a lot situated on more than one road, will require a sign for each road frontage, meeting the above location requirements. In no instance shall a sign be located within 25 ft. of the intersection. The Planning Office must approve the sign location at the time of application. In unique cases due to the configuration of the property, or natural features the Planning Office may approve an alternate sign location.

Rezoning signs must be removed within:
- Seven days of enactment by the City Council.
- Seven days of withdrawing rezoning application.
- Seven days of denial of rezoning request by the City Council.
Failure to remove sign(s) within this period may require removal of the sign(s) by the City and/or prosecution at the owner’s expense.
