Clarkston to update sign ordinance

Faced with resident concern, Clarkston is in the process of updating its sign ordinance to ensure more uniformly sized and located business signs.

The city is setting up a team to review best practices elsewhere and solicit input from residents and business owners as it develops the new law. It should be ready for a vote next year.

Those interested in participating can contact Planning Director Jason Gaines at jgaines@cityofclarkston.com.
