Dearborn is reminding residents of the rules for political signs as the 2021 city elections start to heat up.

Across the city, signs are not allowed in the public right of way, including the easement betwween the sidewalk and the street, and they need to be at least three feet from a property line.

On residential properties, temporary signs, including political signs, must be no more than nine square feet per side, which is the size of most typical yard signs.  There is no limit on the number of signs a residential property can have.
