Code Enforcement acts as the liaison between businesses and city departments. They enforce the municipal ordinances in accordance to the particular zone where the business is located. They work to educate businesses and the community about all types of permitting, from signs and tents, to banners and grand openings.

Sign permit applications are approved by the Code Enforcement Officers. Once a Sign Permit Application is completed and submitted, then they will deem the legality of the sign and will grant or deny your permit application. 

The Daphne Land Use & Development Ordinance 2011-54 contains all the Sign Provisions (Article 33)(2011-14) from which all sign permits are approved, including those that fall into one of the following approved Overlay Districts:
