DPA2023-00007: Commercial Sign Regulations

An amendment to the Prince William County Zoning Ordinance to amend Section 32, Article I, Definitions and Article II, Sign Regulations

Background and Board of County Supervisors Initiation

On November 24, 2021, at the request of Supervisor Vega (DIR 21-61), the Board of County Supervisors directed staff to bring forward an initiation to amend the Zoning Ordinance regarding signage. Several business owners indicated that the provisions for temporary commercial signs is overly limiting since the size of allowed signage is very small and it may take longer than 60 days to complete construction of a commercial project. 

On September 20, 2022, the Board of County Supervisors in Res. No. 22-456 initiated an amendment to the Prince William County Code to address commercial signage issues being experienced by the business community.
