Hillsborough County and each City have slightly different regulations but basically no temporary (i.e. politic) signs are allowed in public right of way which includes most of the linear grassy area adjacent to the roadway and which also includes being attached to utility poles, trees, fence posts or any other similar object on public or private property.
Banners and some signs especially large signs may need a permit…see link at top of page for specific location details.
