Old Town Sign Ordinance:

“The Old Town District contains the original downtown commercial center as well as the original residential neighborhoods that surround and support the area.  In recent years, citizens and business leaders have come to recognize the historic, turn-of-the century character of this community as unique in Lewisville and worthy of preserving and enhancing.  Signs are integral to the overall character of the Old Town streetscape. 

The Guidelines for Signage in Old Town apply to signs located within the Old Town District.  The guidelines are intended to encourage the highest level of design quality and provide flexibility for creativity in sign design.  The guidelines should be followed to the greatest extent possible. Click here to access The Old Town Sign Ordinance that was adopted by City Council on April 1, 2013.
