No sign may be erected, relocated, constructed, or altered within the areas of the County under Clallam County jurisdiction without a permit obtained from the Clallam County Department of Community Development, unless specifically exempt under this code (CCC 33.57.030). Painting, cleaning, refacing, or replacement of defective parts may be completed without a permit; however, replacement of the sign structure will need to be reviewed by the Building Department to determine if a building permit is required in accordance with the International Building Code.

The application for permitting a sign shall include drawings and details of the proposed sign, associated support structure and method of attachment, drawing of all exterior lighting (if any), a site plan with location of all proposed and existing signs, and dimensions of all existing signs.
