"Need a Sign? Apply for a Permit A "streamlined" procedure for existing regulations on temporary signs for businesses, tag sales and private/non-profits carry a five-dollar fee "
Editor's Note: This story has been revised. The ZEO had a new administrative procedure approved to carry out existing regulations, not new ones.
Lori Knouse and her husband were operating a tag sale in their yard one Friday morning in July, when a man walked up to her and asked, "Are you in charge?"
According to her recollection, Knouse said he then asked, "'So you don't know you need a permit for a tag sale?' and I said, 'No. Since when?' And he said, 'Oh it started last month.'"
The man was Town Zoning Enforcement Officer Joe Chapman and he was not saying permits were needed to hold a tag sale. Rather, he was referring to the signs.
