The City of Pensacola Planning Board is considering new guidelines for permitted signs. These guidelines cover the design, materials, lighting, and landscaping related to signs. The proposed rules aim to ensure signs match the architectural style of the buildings they are associated with, encourage indirect or internal lighting, and require sign landscaping to complement the overall site development. This item is currently under review by the Planning Board. If approved, these guidelines could lead to work involving site preparation for sign placement, installation of new signage, and related landscaping. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas like sign manufacturing, electrical work for lighting, landscaping, and general site preparation may find opportunities. Engaging early, before final plans and permits are issued, could provide an advantage in securing future work related to these new sign standards.
