Public Information Signs are intended to make the public aware of land use and
development actions being considered by the City and facilitate timely and effective public
participation in the review process.
Signs are required for each of the following development actions:
• Short Plat Applications
• Preliminary Plat Applications
• Final Planned Unit Development Applications
Please install the sign the same day as the application submittal.
SIGN INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS:
1. Size and Appearance of Sign:
All signs must be 4’ X 8’ (see illustration 1 for correct form). Signs shall be prepared using
templates or attachable lettering. Hand lettered signs are not acceptable. Signs meeting all
the established criteria may be obtained from any professional sign company. R & R
Graphics (425-793-9585) and Star Graphics (425-235-8138) are two local sign companies
providing this service. Prices vary and you may consult the yellow pages to obtain quotes
from other sign companies.
2. Plastic Flyer Box:
Upon request, the City will provide a plastic case for the applicant to mount in the lower
right hand corner of the sign(s). The case is needed to provide the public with information
regarding the project’s scope and time frames. City staff will fill the case with the
appropriate public notices after the applicant installs the sign(s) and the plastic case(s).
3. Content of Notice:
Include the following information on your sign(s) (see “Illustration 1” for correct form).
• The title “Proposed Land Use Action”;
• Type of land use or development action which is proposed;

• Address of the proposal;
• City of Renton logo (copy attached);

• Drawing showing the site boundaries.
4. Number, Placement, and Time of Display:
Determine the number of signs required by contacting the Planning Division at (425) 430-
7294. A minimum of one sign is required at each project site. Additional signs may be
required for larger sites or for properties with several street frontages. The sign(s) must be
erected in a location, which is clearly visible and accessible from the right of way(s) abutting
the subject property. The sign(s) cannot be located within the clear vision area (sight
triangle) depicted below.
5. Responsibility for Installation, Maintenance and Removal:
The applicant shall be solely responsible for the construction, installation, maintenance and
removal of the sign(s) and the associated costs. The applicant must install the sign(s) within
one week of the date of application and provide the Planning Division with a notarized
“Affidavit of Installation of Public Information Sign(s)” in order for the application to be
considered complete. The applicant is required to maintain the notice board in good
condition until the final City action on the proposal. The sign(s) must be removed within a
week following the end of the appeal period after the final Council or Examiner decision.
If the sign is removed prior to the final action of the Council or Examiner, the applicant is
responsible for immediate replacement of the sign.
6. Responsibility for Update of Sign and Installation of Notices of Environmental
Determination and Public Hearings:
Once the basic sign, laminated site plan, and plastic case have been installed by the
applicant, the Planning Division will post a laminated notice of the project’s acceptance at
the site as well as fill the plastic case with loose copies of the same notice. The Planning
Division will subsequently be responsible for posting any environmental determination,
notice of hearing, and final decision.
Several local companies that provide laminating services are R & R Graphics (425-793-9585)
and Kinko’s Copies/FedEx (206-244-8884).
7. Return of the Plastic Flyer Case to the Planning Division:
The plastic case must be returned to the Planning Division (6th Floor) prior to plat recording
.
