6-2026-29 DECD Construction Sign Template.pdf

This is a construction sign template document issued by the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) for the Lower Wharf Improvement Project located at 1085 Harbor Road in the Southport Historic District, Fairfield, Connecticut. The template specifies requirements for a project identification sign that must be installed at the start of construction and removed upon completion. The sign is an 8 feet tall by 4 feet wide panel constructed from MDO-EXT-APA plywood supported by two treated 4x4 wood columns secured 4 feet into grade. The sign must display the project name in Poppins semi-bold typeface at the largest font size, followed by the names of the project sponsor/developer, the Governor, the DECD Commissioner, the Chief Elected Official, the municipality, the architect, and the general contractor in appropriately scaled text sizes. The sign must be positioned where it is clearly visible to the public.

All lettering and symbols on the sign shall be black with a white enamel background, while the back of the plywood and support structure shall be painted matte black. The sign must include the Connecticut state seal and Governor's logo as provided. This sign template is a standard requirement for all DECD-related construction projects in Connecticut and serves as public notification of the project's sponsorship, leadership, and participating entities during the construction period.
