The 2016 Parade of Homes runs from June 18, 2016 through June 26, 2016.  The Developers, Builders and Realtors request each year to allow Direction Signs be placed along the Parade routes in public rights-of-way to help citizens find way to the parade homes and wonderful developments in our City.  Those requesting approval and authorization by Council to place directional signage are listed below.  Many others will not place directional signage, but will have signage at their main development entrances.
