Sign Ordinance Amendment Highlights – Adopted Jan. 13, 2025

Amendments to Johns Creek Sign Ordinance (Appendix A. Article XXXIII) to comprehensively modify, add and revise the ordinance and establish new signage regulations for the Town Center. Some key highlights are:

• Section 33.23. – Measurement of Sign Area: Simplified how to measure sign area by replacing the measurement of the sign area based on a “continuous polygon comprised of not more than eight (8) straight lines” to “area within the smallest rectangle enclosing the limits of the sign face.”
• Section 33.26. – Wall Sign Area Calculation: Simplified wall area calculations measuring only the linear foot measurement of the storefront and applying a calculation of one and one-tenth (1.1) square foot per one (1) linear foot to determine the allowable size of a wall sign. 
• Section 33.26.G. – Town Center Mixed Use (TC-X) District: Established sign regulations to support new development and businesses in the Town Center area, particularly in master planned mixed-use developments zoned TC-X.
