Signage Guidelines

The NRAC drafted and adopted acknowledgement signage guidelines for all Franklin County, District 3 projects funded with Clean Ohio Conservation funding beginning in Round 7 B (2013). Program policy five states, “All funded District 3 projects are encouraged but not required to erect signage following District 3 signage guidelines. Temporary construction signs are highly encouraged but must follow the Ohio Public Works Commission signage guidelines. The cost of a sign is reimbursable and projects with multiple signs should check with the Ohio Public Works Commission for funding eligibility. A certification of signage location(s) and a photo should be submitted to the District 3 liaison within one year of the project closeout date.”

A Green Space Conservation Program acknowledgement sign may be permanently placed within the project site. If feasible, the acknowledgement sign should be placed on-site at the start of construction. An acknowledgement sign is also encouraged for acquisition and stream restoration projects. The sign may be posted at an acquisition and/or stream restoration project after the acquisition and/or construction process is complete.
