Signs

Sign regulations are an important aspect of the City of Murray’s Zoning Ordinance. The intent of the sign ordinance is to enhance the beauty of Murray and to help businesses maximize exposure without creating a nuisance to public safety and the aesthetics of the city.

There are many variables relating to the size and location of a sign. Road frontage, the square footage of the building’s face, setbacks, line of sight for traffic at intersections, height and type of sign are all issues which must be considered before a sign permit can be issued and a sign erected or altered. Planning & Engineering staff will assist you in the sign permit application process. Please call Planning & Engineering at 270-762-0330 or stop by the Planning office in City Hall if you would like to erect or replace a sign.

The details on sign regulations can be viewed in this portion of the zoning ordinance. Some of the topics in this section of the zoning ordinance are:

Intent of sign regulations
Regulations for signs in residential zones
Regulations for signs in business zones
Regulations for signs in professional office zones
Regulations for signs in agricultural zones
General sign regulations
Signs permitted in all zones
