Standard commercial sign permits through Dallas Development Services typically take 3 to 6 weeks. If a Board of Adjustment variance is required, timelines are 8 to 12 weeks. We expedite this process through our deep familiarity with local building departments.
A Professional Engineer (PE) calculation is a certified structural analysis proving that a sign and its foundation can withstand local statutory wind speeds (130+ MPH in North Texas). Municipalities require signed and sealed PE drawings before issuing permits.
