Tri-Cities Sign & Hosting Bylaw Quick-Reference

πŸ›οΈ Port Coquitlam (Sign Bylaw No. 2638)

Never attach signs to utility poles, lamp posts, traffic lights, or city trees. Freestanding/A-frame signs must be under 0.28 sq. m (3 sq. ft.), displayed only dawn to dusk on sale days, never block sidewalks/sightlines, and be removed immediately after teardown.

🌲 Coquitlam (City Garage Sale Guidelines)

Signs are strictly prohibited on street signs, lamp posts, medians, or City boulevards. Place signs only on private property with owner permission the morning of the sale and remove immediately after. Keep driveways and fire hydrants clear.

βš“ Port Moody (Sign Bylaw & Strata Rules)

Temporary garage sale signs cannot be taped to municipal poles, street furniture, or public boulevards without permit authorization. For townhouse/bare-land stratas (e.g., Klahanie, Heritage Mtn), verify council approval for courtyard setups and visitor parking.
