Political Signage in your Neighborhood

The City of Miami Code and City Zoning Code, and County Regulations and State Statutes control the size, placement and timely removal of political signs and advertising.

In a nutshell:

Temporary political signs on private property in non-residential districts may not exceed 15 square feet (ex. 3’ x 5’) without a city permit.
Temporary political signs on private property in residential districts may not exceed 4 square feet (ex. 2’ x 2’) without a city permit.
Political campaign signs shall not be erected, posted, painted, tacked, nailed, or otherwise displayed, placed, or located on or above any state or county road right-of-way.
All political signs must be removed within 30 days after the election.
If political signs are not removed within the specified period, the City has the authority to remove such signs and may charge the candidate the actual cost for such removal.
