Design Guidelines for Pylon and Pole Mounted Signs
Pylon and pole mounted signs must be appropriately scaled, preserve visual amenity, avoid adjacency to residential properties, and have illumination limited to lettering and logos.
• pylon and pole mounted signs should be in scale with their surroundings and they should not significantly exceed surrounding building heights;
• they should not detract from the visual amenity or character of the surrounding area;
• they should not be sited adjacent to, and wherever possible should not directly face residential properties; and
• illumination should generally be restricted to the sign lettering and logo.
