First of all, if your plan will continue whether or not the sign was ordered, I question whether the sign "task" should even be in the schedule.
However if you still want to show the sign task don't have any other tasks in your plan dependent on it (i.e. no predecessors or successors). In my view this is bad practice but it does address your scenario.

Sadly, I have to add this sign task to track if someone else is doing their work. At the end of the day, I'm responsible for the project and have to report on why or why we don't have a sign when I'm ready to open. It is frustrating on my end. Thank you for the response!
