TXAPA Midwest and North Central Sections: Planning for Sign Code Success

Developing effective and enforceable sign codes can often be a complex and controversial process. Let the experts from the International Sign Association and veteran certified planners help you navigate the world of sign codes and provide you with the latest information and expertise so you don't have to go through this process alone.

With the $35 registration, breakfast and lunch will be provided.

Over 1,350 planners and local officials from across the country have participated in our Planning for Sign Code Success™ workshops, earned CM credits, and helped their communities update their sign codes. Join them and register today at https://apatxsigncode.eventzilla.net!
