Election Sign Guidelines

Election Signs During election season, we frequently receive questions about the City’s rules regarding election signs.  The guide below provides an overview of the rules applicable to the type of election sign we receive the most questions about—what the Sherwood Zoning and Community Development Code (SZCDC) refers to as “portable signs,” and specifically portable signs attached to a wood or wire h-frame stake driven into the ground. If you have questions about other types of signs, or questions about portable signs that are not covered by this guide, please call the Sherwood Planning Department at 503-925-2308
