Land Development Regulation Commission Public Hearing · 2026-09-30 · agenda_item

The Marion County Land Development Regulation Commission will hold a public hearing on September 30, 2026, to review a proposed amendment to the Land Development Code (LDC), Article 4, Division 4, Section 4.4.5, which addresses off-site signs. This item is currently under review and is pending a decision, meaning the opportunity is in its early stages. The proposed change would update the rules for off-site signs, which could affect how and where businesses place advertising. If approved, this amendment would set new standards for sign placement, size, and permitting, creating work for sign fabricators, installers, and electricians. The project would involve the design, fabrication, and installation of new signs, as well as potential removal or modification of existing ones. Local contractors, sign companies, and electrical and lighting specialists could compete for this work. Reaching out to the county staff contact early, before the final rules are adopted, is the best way to understand the new requirements and position your business for upcoming projects.
