Description

There are political signs on public property up and down Orange Street. I'm pretty sure that this is illegal.

Hmmm.

I might be wrong about this being illegal...can't find relevant law State or City. Anyone know better?

In any event, I think its questionable to stick a campaign sign in front of somebody's house without asking the owner (whether or not its in the public ROW, it gives the maybe-false appearance of that owners support).

This goes for ALL campaigns.

These signs are also placed on the public property entering the highway on Willow Street....

I remember this being addressed once before in the independent... 'technically' it is illegal to post signs on public property (grass between the sidwalk, curb and street; on telephone poles/trees, etc.) or on private property without permission.

This particular one was taken down. Dunno about the rest.
