WHAT MAKES A MURAL "PUBLIC"?
Three words: location, location, location.
City Code defines a mural as "a painting, graphic design, or pictorial representation applied directly or attached to an exterior mounting surface or exterior wall that is visible from any point of any public right-of-way including public street, sidewalk or greenway trail. Any representation which identifies a business or building by logo, product, service, trademark, message, or slogan shall be considered a sign."
