Residents Asked To Weigh In On Garage Sale Signs

TYLER � The City of Tyler is currently considering a request to change the ordinance dealing with off-site estate and garage sale signs. Residents can share their opinions through Tyler Speaks on the City of Tyler web site: http://www.CityofTyler.org

According to a release from the city, officials will read the statements and incorporate them into their decision process. The first discussion topic, off-site estate and garage sale signs, has been posted and residents may post their opinions on the page after registering.

The City of Tyler currently does not allow off-premise advertising of estate/garage sales. The City Council is considering a proposed Ordinance Amendment that would allow up to four off-premise directional signs on private property with permission
from the property owners.

To protect Tyler�s natural beauty, signs may not be posted on the light posts, traffic signal posts, sidewalk, fire hydrant, or any other public properties and rights-of-way.
