Garage sales

Zoning Ordinance:

Garage Sales are limited to no more than three sales per calendar year at any one property, and each sale may not exceed three consecutive calendar days.

No signs are allowed on the public right-of-way under state law (Minn.Stat.160.2715). This includes stick signs, sandwich boards and banners that promote businesses, garage sales or signs for political candidates. The right-of-way includes public streets, bridges, medians, bike lanes, sidewalks, boulevards, trails and pedestrian bridges over roadways. In most cases where sidewalks are present, the right-of-way extends to at least the edge of the sidewalk closest to private property – this includes the grassy area between the sidewalk and the street (known as a boulevard).
