The Forsyth County chairman has temporarily relaxed certain regulations to let restaurants and retailers put up, without a permit, as many as two additional signs to alert the public to changes in their operation due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We understand that some in our business community could use additional ways to communicate with their customers,” said Laura Semanson, chairman of the Forsyth Board of Commissioners. “The purpose of the order is to assist these local businesses and restaurants during a time of national crisis.”
The signs can advertise such things as modified hours of operation, public safety protocols, implementation of curbside or online service, or enhanced or alternate price lists. They can be posted up to 10 days; be as much as 10 feet tall and 32 square feet in size; and have up to two “sign devices,” such as balloons, streamers or banners, but no searchlights.
Semanson's order is in effect until the expiration of Forsyth's state of emergency. Information: https://bit.ly/34zc9mw
