Assemble the sealed engineering package a pole sign permit submittal requires

Steps

1. Confirm the permit-issuing jurisdiction requires a professional engineer's or architect's seal on the sign's structural drawings, generally required for pole and monument signs above the local exemption threshold.
2. Include full structural calculations (wind load, footing/foundation design, material specifications) behind the sealed drawing sheet.
3. Verify the engineer is licensed in the state where the sign will be installed, since a stamp from an engineer not licensed locally will be rejected.
4. Confirm whether the jurisdiction accepts a digital/electronic seal or requires a wet-ink signature and raised seal on submitted sheets, since policy differs by building department.
5. Bundle the sealed structural package with the architectural and electrical sign drawings into one coordinated permit set before submittal.
