Street corners dotted with portable A-frame signs could have a cleaner appearance by summer.
The growing number of small sandwich board-style signs throughout the city has drawn negative attention from some residents, prompting city officials to consider the issue as they move forward with rewriting Maricopa’s zoning code.
“Ten years after incorporation, it’s now the time that we need to create our own city zoning code that’s designed for the city of Maricopa and not one that is done in the 50s or 60s, which doesn’t help us in our current situation as a growing city,” said City Planner Rodolfo Lopez.
