We will work on your entire sign project including Alderman approvals, Neighborhood associations, Public Way Use approvals, the City of Chicago Department of Buildings, Department of Transportation, Landmark Preservation Commission approvals. Business and personal information are required to apply for a sign permit. Each sign will need its own permit, even if all signs will be installed on the same building or property. Any sign or sign structure that extends over the public way (sidewalk, parkway, street or alley) requires a Public Way Use Permit and a City Council Ordinance. If the sign or sign structure requires drawings from a licensed architect or licensed structural engineer, then a sign contractor will have to be listed on the application. Also, if the sign or sign structure has electrical work, a licensed electrical contractor must be listed on the application. We can help you to find the licensed electrical contractor who can inspect and connect your sign
