Temporary Signs

On June 10, 2020 the Village Board adopted Ordinance 20-024 to relax standards for temporary signage as an initiative of the COVID Economic Recovery Plan for the Village of Homer Glen.  On December 14, 2022, the Village Board extended the expiration date for the relaxed standards for a fifth time to the expiration date of December 31, 2023 with the adoption of Ordinance 22-059.  The Village Board and the Community and Economic Development Committee recommended the 12 month extension rather than sunsetting at this time due to ongoing economic challenges for businesses. Further, lighting of temporary signs under the modified standards is now allowed same as the regular standards per the Outdoor Lighting Code. See below the link to the modified standards.
