1. Do I need a permit to have a garage/yard sale?

No, the Village does not require or offer permits for garage/yard sales.

Please note, garage/yard sales are prohibited in all commercial districts and properties adjacent to any state route (i.e., State Routes 159 or 162).

2. Is there a time limit imposed on a garage/yard sale?

All sales will be limited to a maximum of a three-day period.

3. Can I use signs to advertise my garage/yard sale?

Yes. Signs are limited to four (4) signs per sale, including the sign erected on the sale premises. The signs, which may not exceed 2' X 3' in size (excluding stakes) must contain the following information:

1. Address of the location of the sale
2. Date(s) of the sale
3. Address of the person conducting the sale if different from the location of the sale

Signs must be erected using wooden or metal stakes, and cannot be attached to power poles, trees, street signs or vehicles. They may be placed on public right-of-way or private property. Signs placed on private property must have the permission of the property owner at the location. Signs must be placed so as not to impede or block visibility for vehicular traffic. They cannot be placed on Village property or right-of-way adjacent to Village property (parks, cemetery, public buildings, etc.). They may be erected the morning of the day of the sale and must be removed no later than 9:00 p.m. on the last day of the sale. Failure to comply with this provision may subject you to be cited with an ordinance violation.
