otherwise stated in this chapter:
1. Signs or their supporting members shall not be erected, altered, relocated,
or maintained so as to interfere with or restrict access to a window or other
opening in a building in such manner as to limit air circulation or obstruct or
interfere with the free use of a fire escape, exit, standpipe, stairway, door,
ventilator or window, or similar opening. Any such sign constitutes a nuisance
and shall not become a legal nonconforming sign.
2. All signs shall be constructed, installed and maintained to structurally
comply with all applicable requirements of the Building Code and Uniform
Sign Code, as adopted and amended by the city. Those signs incorporating
electrical components shall be constructed and maintained to also comply
with the Electrical Code as adopted by the city.
3. Where signs are permitted to be illuminated, the following regulations shall

a. Floodlighting is permitted only when such lighting is installed on private

c. Exposed bulbs forming a part of a sign are permitted, provided they

17.60.070 Specialized signs.
A. Off -Site Residential Subdivision/Project Directional Kiosk Sign Program. The
following is intended to provide for the administration of a uniform, coordinated
sign program of kiosks that offer developers of new residential subdivisions means
of providing direction to their projects. The kiosk signs will minimize confusion
among prospective purchasers of new homes to find those developments,
promote traffic safety by removing competing signs from busy streets, and reduce
visual blight of incompatible sign types in residential neighborhoods. No such off -
site directional sign other than those in conformance with this chapter shall be
erected or maintained within the city.
1. Requirements for Directional Kiosks.
a. Kiosks shall be permitted in all zone districts except on a lot developed
with a single -unit residence. They may be permitted on private land or
public right-of-way that is maintained by the property owner provided the
property owner's permission has been granted in writing. Signs may also
be permitted within the public right-of-way or parkway that is maintained
by the city of Bakersfield or as contracted by the city subject to approval
and issuance of an encroachment permit by the city. All other location
