Here is the word from the city on A-frame signs.� Of course, the right of

This is a violation Sections 3202.3.1 and 3202.5.1 of the Baltimore City
Building Code prohibit the placing of A-Frame signs in the public right
of way.� A citation will be issued and the sign removed.� The violator
in addition to the fine can also be charged the cost of removal and any
expenses related to repairing the damage caused� by the removal.
If there are questions regarding this the person to contact is Martha
Grande in Right - of - Ways, her number is 410 396-3346.
Let me know if� I can be of any additional assistance.

Dale,
Would you kindly let me know the law on "sandwich" signs so I can let
these
community members know what, if anything they can do to put a stop to
them
in Charles Village?� BTW, the Charles Village Benefits district sets a
sandwich sign outside its office at 2301 N. Charles Street to advertise
community events.� Is this allowed?
Sincerely,
W. Brad Schlegel
