    Village's Political Sign Regulations


    The November 3, 2020 Presidential Election is just around the corner, and as a reminder for residents, campaign staff, and volunteers, the Village of Palatine has political sign regulations in effect. Signs posted within public right-of-way are permitted up to three days (72 hours) prior to Election Day and shall be removed within 24 hours after the election. Signs may be installed no earlier than Saturday, October 31 and be removed by Wednesday, November 4. Signs posted on private (non-residential) property are permitted no more than 30 days prior to Election Day and shall be removed within 48 hours after the Election.
    Restrictions do not apply to signs on private residential property. Permission of the property owner should be obtained prior to placing any signs on private property. In addition, all political signs shall not exceed 8 square feet in area and be limited to a maximum height of 4 feet. Signs in the right-of-way shall provide a minimum setback of 1 foot from any curb, shoulder or sidewalk. The Village will remove any signs that do not comply with regulations or that create safety issues for pedestrians and motorists.
