Cursory Review
The cursory review is a measure to ensure that only complete permit applications are put into the sign permit review process. It is not intended that the cursory review process also reviews technical content for compliance with applicable codes and standards.

Only those applications considered complete and ready for sign permit review will be received for processing; applications considered incomplete will be returned, along with an explanation of what additional information is required.

Fees
Each application for a sign permit shall submit, together with his application, a processing fee of $48.00. Upon approval of the application, this fee will be a credit towards the appropriate permit fee. In cases of rejection of an application, the processing fee will not be refunded.

Prior to the issuance of a sign permit, the applicant shall submit the balance of the permit fee due.
