The City of Hamilton's specifications for a multiple unit identification sign — the site map at a development's entrance driveway that lets a visitor or emergency responder locate individual units. Issued by Legislative Approvals within the Growth Management Division, it runs twenty-one numbered items across sign elements, sign design, sign size, construction and location: driveways, parking and sidewalks, unit numbers, hydrants and fire route, north arrow, a “you are here” label in white on red, reflective and contrasting lettering, 50 mm address block letters and 30 mm unit designators.
