Signage

• No more than two signs, each measure no more than 2x3 may be placed within the community to advertise and direct traffic to the sale.
• One of the two signs announcing the yard sale may be placed at the intersection of Pea Neck Road and Back Creek Drive unless a sign for another yard sale is already in place. On any given day no more than 1 yard sale sign may be displayed at the Back Creek Drive entry into Back Creek Landing.
• A second sign may be installed either at the entry of the court/street where the yard sale is being conducted or at the yard sale location itself.

Parking

• The resident conducting a yard sale shall be responsible for insuring that participants in the yard sale do not park on road shoulders in front of other homes. In the event that cars are parked improperly and rainfall occurs during conduct of the yard sale, the resident hosting the sale shall be responsible for repair of all damage to road shoulders arising from yard sale attendees improperly parking vehicles on soft ground.

In Witness Whereof, the EPCOM approves the forgoing Resolution the 14^th day of April, 2003.
