U 4646 Dakota Street SE Policy for Temporary Signs
Prior Lake,MN 55372
Sr
The City of Prior Lake does not require sign permits for Yard Sale Signs, Election Signs or similar
Temporary Signage. There are, however, criteria for the location of these signs. These criteria are
listed and shown in the picture below.
® Do not place these signs within the street right-of-way. Instead, locate the signs on the
building side of curbs and sidewalks. This area is usually private property.
• On corners, you can determine the approximate right-of-way line by measuring 50 feet along
the curb line on each street, and drawing an imaginary line connecting these two points to
form a triangle. No sign taller than 2 1/feet should be located within this triangle. Instead,
place the signs on the building side of the imaginary line you have just created.
• Do not attach signs to utility poles or light standards, as these are also considered public
property.
• Do not place signs on any publicly owned property, such as parks, wetlands and City
buildings.
• Yard Sale signs may be displayed 7 days prior to the sale and must be removed
immediately after the end of the yard sale.
• In a State general election year, such signs may not be posted until 46 days before the date
of the State primary election and must be removed within 10 days following the State
general election.

Signs located within City, County or State right-of-way, or on other City property, may be removed by
City staff. These signs will be stored at the City Public Works building for two weeks. The signs may
be retrieved by visiting the Public Works Building at 17073 Adelmann Street. Any unclaimed signs will
be discarded after two weeks.

As displayed below, right of way parameters can vary according to the road. Look for indicators
such as utility poles, walking paths, fire hydrants and cut lines in the grass when determining the
right of way boundary. In the image below, areas shaded in GREEN would be suitable for sign
placement with permission from the property owner. All other areas are considered right of way or
public property, signs placed in these areas may be subject to removal by city staff.
