Town and Community Event Signs
Up to one month in advance of and during town-wide and Community events, signs not
exceeding 30 square feet may be displayed as a means of publicizing the event.

that event is automatically recognized as a Town and Community Event and as such
grants rights for related signs as indicated above and may include Off Premise Signs as
outlined in Section 20.6.
If this sign is to be located within the Old Kings Highway Regional Historic District and is
erected for an accumulated time period of 14 days or more within a calendar year then
the Brewster Historic District Committee shall have review authority for a Certificate of
Appropriateness.
Town and Community Event sign permits shall be processed at the Board of
Selectmen’s office with a copy of the approved permit to be sent to the Building
Department.
