Before you file in Colleyville

Planned unit developments and special use permitsSigns in a PUD are allowed only where the PUD ordinance allows that kind of use, and a PUD or SUP ordinance can authorize different sign rules (Section 7-130.L). If the property is zoned PUD-C or PUD-R or has an SUP, check its ordinance with the city.
Major shopping centersLarge shopping centers can get a special purpose sign district from the City Council, with landmark, directory and entry-wall signs and shared off-premises signs (Sections 7-150.F, 7-155.B, 7-210.B). Ask the city whether one applies.
Fee sheetThe sign permit fees come from the city's Building Inspections permit fee sheet; the sign chapter says the fee schedule is set by separate ordinance (Section 7-135.B). Confirm the fee when you apply.
Registered sign contractorOnly a contractor registered with the city may erect permanent signs (Section 7-130.F). Permits are filed online after contractor registration. Source
