LA Citywide Sign Ordinance Revisions
LA Citywide Sign Ordinance
Dear CSA Member:
The California Sign Association has been working with the City of Los Angeles for the last eleven years, in an effort to have on-premise sign industry input in the revised ordinance. The revised draft that was recently released is under review by CSA legal staff and your Government Affairs Committee; any input you would like to share is welcome. Changes include introduction of a new Sign District tier, criteria for relocation of existing off-site signs, methods for sign area calculations, and enhanced sign reduction standards. The revised draft that was recently released is under review by CSA legal staff and your Government Affairs Committee; any input you would like to share is welcome.

Background: In late 2019 the Los Angeles City Council adopted a detailed set of instructions directing Los Angeles City Planning to revise the proposed Citywide Sign Ordinance (Council File # 11-1705). These instructions requested specific amendments to the December 2017 draft ordinance.
