SEMINARS

Morning Seminar: Get Those Tough Projects Permitted

Speaker: David Hickey, International Sign Association

We’ve all had sign projects where we’ve had to jump through hoops, dig down deep and find imaginative ways to get approval from local officials, but there are only so many hours in the day. Up your skills by learning from ISA’s experiences in communities across the country on how to get those tough sign projects across the finish line, including permitting requirements from hell, special approvals and variances. Attendees will find out how to be responsive to what the community wants, what approaches have worked and how to pull victory from the jaws of sign code defeat.  

Afternoon Seminar: COMING SOON
