I wish I knew all the different approvals & their lead times you need from the city before you can open the doors. It took over 4 months to get my sign. I needed approval from the city to start the process, then 2 boards (that each only meet once a month & you can’t go to both in the same month) & after the boards give approval then back to the city to get the permit.
