Banner Applications
Display of Banners ~~ Gulf Dr. at the end of Cortez Road
The Banner Sign Application Form must be filled out completely and returned to the Planning & Development Dept. TWO MONTHS prior to the event. This will allow enough time to be presented first for an application review by the Building Official, after which it will be scheduled for approval at a Commission meeting. The approval of the application by City Commission must take place at least 30 days prior to the event.
A copy of the certification that your organization is a non-profit must be attached to the application, as well as a hand drawing of the banner listing size and word content.
Only banner signs will be permitted. After approval, City PW staff will put posts (with eye hooks) in the ground 14 days prior to the event. You will be responsible for hanging your banner on these posts (remember to bring rope to tie to the eye hooks). Approved banners must be hung from the City posts only, no other posts, stakes, etc. will be allowed. Maximum size for a banner is 8 ft. x 4 ft. The banner should be weather-proof and have grommets to facilitate attachment to the eye hooks on City posts.
The banner must be removed within 24 hours after the event is over. The posts will be removed by the City at that time. Any banners left after the 24 hour deadline will be removed and discarded.
The City of Bradenton Beach reserves the right to deny approval of any and all applications.
Failure to comply with the above regulations will result in loss of the privilege to display banners in the future.
Fees: $25.00 payable when application is submitted to the Building Department.
