The office consolidation of the City of Hamilton Sign By-law, By-law No. 10-197, which replaced By-law No. 06-243. Its index runs from definitions through title, scope and intent, into interpretation and administration — permits, refusal, expiry or renewal, existing signs and refunds — then into regulations written separately for each sign type, among them ground, wall, mobile, portable, inflatable, poster, election, billboard and digital billboard signs, before variances and penalties. It incorporates six amending by-laws and the extract here ends inside the variance sections.
