Your question is too vague. There are some municipalities that completely ban use of public property for such purposes. Define your search to the area you want to place the signs and that should yield better feedback.

It's easier to get forgiveness than permission.

Are we calling the game using the Bush Administration playbook now?

PENNDOT's rules can be interpreted in various ways. Basically anything on a public right of way (as defined by PENNDOT) cannot be placed unless you have a permit. Here is the pamphlet on it. Maybe the numbers listed can give you more specific information:
