Before you file in Deer Park
- Same rules in every districtDeer Park's sign chapter (Chapter 86) sets the same height and face size limits everywhere; it does not vary them by zoning district, so any district you pick shows the same rules.
- Engineer and electrical permitsThe city's Sign Permits page asks for every sign to be designed and certified by a Texas registered professional engineer, and illuminated signs need a separate electrical permit by a licensed Deer Park master electrician.
- Off-premise and portable signsOnly on-premises commercial signs are allowed (Sec. 86-172(c)); portable, trailer and roof signs are prohibited (Sec. 86-55).
- Application form is a scanThe city's sign application is a scanned PDF that we did not read; it asks for notarized affidavits and engineering details. Get the current form from the city. Source
