Baltimore sign permit requirements
What the Baltimore sign code and sign ordinance allow, summarised from Baltimore City Code, Title 17 — Signs. Every figure below shows the ordinance's own wording, so you can check it rather than take our word for it.
Check before you build. This is an
informational summary, not legal advice, and sign rules change. Confirm
with Baltimore's planning department before ordering or installing a sign —
most codes also vary by zoning district.
Wall sign — maximum area
Table 17-201C-2: Ground floor wall sign 30 sq. ft. (1 per tenant w/ direct ground-floor access); Above ground floor 2 sq. ft. per linear foot of building frontage

Not covered in the sign chapter we read: is a permit required?, wall sign — % of facade, freestanding sign — setback, projecting sign — clearance, illumination, temporary signs and banners. That doesn't mean the city has no rule — it may sit elsewhere in the code.
