Signs
Signs may be erected, placed, established, painted, created or maintained in the County only in conformance with the standards, procedures, exemptions and other requirements of Chapter 33.57 CCC. A sign permit is required unless the sign is designated as exempt. The size of the sign will be dictated by the zone in which the posting property resides. Contact the Clallam County Planning Department for further information.
