Park event signs

The Maitland City Council adopted Ordinance 1298 on Oct. 26, 2015, which amended the sign code to permit park event signs in predetermined locations throughout the city, if an event is held at Lake Lily. The ordinance permits applicants the ability to place up to four park event signs per single event held at Lake Lily. The four signs will be located in up to four of the 10 predetermined locations. However, only one sign is permitted at a time in each of the 10 predetermined locations.

The signs must be machine-printed on corrugated plastic and measure no more than 24 square feet and shall not exceed 7 feet in height. Park event signs can be posted for a period of 10 consecutive days and require a completed application for permit and a non-refundable application fee of $25. Review and approval of the park event sign application will be conducted within 10 business days, once the application is deemed sufficient. Events at Lake Lily are coordinated through the Parks and Recreation Department via the Community Events Coordinator, Mari Smith ([email protected] or 407-539-6268).
