Questions
- Do you file the permit?
- No. You file it. We do the research and paperwork so your team does not have to dig through the city code.
- Do you make the permit drawings?
- Not at this time. The packet tells you what the drawings need to show.
- Is this legal or design advice?
- No. It is research from the city's published rules. The city has the final say, and some signs need drawings sealed by a licensed professional.
- Which cities do you cover?
- Any US city that publishes its sign code online. Arizona cities are the fastest.
- How do I stop getting emails from you?
- Reply STOP to any email and we will not write again.
