There is quite a bit of information about signs for you to review if you are interested in placing a sign within the Town limits of Breckenridge.  General questions can be asked by viewing our FAQs page, or you can speak with a current planner about signage.  There is also a sign handbook, which helps explain the Sign Code in more general terms.  Finally, if you are ready to apply, you need a sign permit application.  Contact the planning department for a current planner if you have additional questions, (970) 453-3160, or websitecommdev@townofbreckenridge.com.

To access the Sign Code, see Title 8, Chapter 2 of the Breckenridge Town Code.
