Sac City Iowa

Location: Sac City, Iowa
Client: City of Sac City

Special Lite Products partnered with the City of Sac City to execute a multi-phase project focused on the revival and beautification of the community’s streetscape. Funded in part by a generous donation from a long-time resident, the project aimed to create a visually cohesive and functional signage system throughout the city.

Planning and Custom Design

The project began with a collaborative design process between Special Lite and Sac City leadership. Multiple design concepts were presented to ensure that signage elements reflected the city’s identity while maintaining durability and visibility. The final designs incorporated imagery of a local landmark for branding on street name blades, reinforcing civic pride.

Project Highlights

• Community Beautification Initiative: A multi-phase project designed to enhance the aesthetic appeal and functionality of Sac City’s streetscape.

• Strategic Signage Sizing:

  • Primary Streets: Larger signage elements were used to enhance visibility.

  • Neighborhood & Secondary Streets: Medium-sized signs ensured a consistent yet appropriately scaled presence.

• Custom Branding: Street name blades featured imagery of a local landmark, integrating the city’s heritage into the design.

• Collaborative Approach: Special Lite worked closely with city officials to develop the concept, design, style, finish, and sizing of all street and traffic signage.

• Multi-Year Execution:

  • Project initiated in 2017.

  • First phase completed in 2018.

  • Additional phases completed in 2019 and 2021.

  • Ongoing phases continue as the city gradually replaces more signage elements each year.

• Signage Types:

  • Stop/double street signs.

  • Speed limit signs.

  • Pedestrian caution signs.

  • Other traffic control signage.

• Premium Materials:

  • All signage manufactured from rust-free aluminum.

  • Powder-coated finish ensures long-term durability and resistance to weather conditions.
