All other applicable requirements as set forth in this chapter shall apply.
11. Fence Mounted Signs. In the c-12 zones when a building is not visible from the public right-of-way and visually blocked by a view obscuring fence, one twenty square foot banner shall be permitted to be mounted on a fence facing the public right-of-way. The banner shall be mounted in a permanent manner flush with the fence and visible to the public right-of-way. The banner shall also not extend above the top of the fence upon which it is mounted.
12. For Sale or For Rent Signs. The area of for sale, for lease or for rent signs shall not be included in the calculation of overall banner area for a site. Although a building permit is not required for this type of banner, all ground mounted for sale and for lease signs shall be reviewed and approved by the planning department and the department of public works.
