Signs in Jefferson Historic Districts

 If the sign is proposed to be located in one of Jefferson’s historic districts, a certificate of appropriateness must be approved by the Jefferson Historic Preservation Commission prior to issuing a sign permit or otherwise authorizing approval to erect a sign. If the sign is smaller than 16 square feet, a certificate of approporateness is only required.

 Properties must be in compliance with the sign regulations for a sign permit to be issued.
