Signage
- Updating your storefront signage is not only a business investment, but an investment in your community to further revitalize the business district. Before beginning such a project, you must ask yourself "Are my signage plans up to code?" By simply reviewing the information here you can save time and money. If your new sign is NOT up to code, you can face heavy fines until you correct the problem. Please be sure to consult with the CASID or Jersey City Division of Planning before you install a new sign.
