Maybe. It is the property owner's responsibility to call the zoning department prior to placement of an accessory building that is less than 200 square feet; if placement does not meet requirements property owner will be forced to move the structure to meet regulations. Garages do have to meet the requirement setbacks.

Ohio law and Brimfield Township zoning prohibit the posting of signage on utility poles and in road right-of-way.
As a courtesy, the Township allows the posting of signage 72 hours prior to the sale. All signage must be removed within 24 hours after the sale. Failure to comply will result in a citation being issued. Please honor this courtesy. Note: no signage is allowed for 500 feet in either direction of the intersection of State Route 43 and Tallmadge Road.
No signage is allowed in any road construction area.
