My neighbor thinks removing signs left on public property is a civic duty. I think it’s a lousy waste of time.
Question : My neighbor thinks removing signs left on public property is a civic duty. I think it’s a lousy waste of time.
What is your opinion? She has a garage full of old signs, like realtor signs, garage signs, yard sales, open house, babysitting signs, new business signs, and she’s DARN proud of it; claiming she is teaching her children about civic order, (quoted the city ordinace about placing signs on public property) and, also feels adament about maintaining the property value in our neighborhood. I feel she’s an idiot, but heck, knock yourself out, but… despite, this,, does this really contribute to a viable form of community outreach, and public concern?

I think she is doing the right thing. Why would you have a problem with it?
I hate those signs. I wish my city would crack down on them, because they people put them up and never take them down even long after their garage sale is long over.
The thing that confuses me is why your neighbor is hanging onto them. I mean, if they are made of cardboard or paper products they have to be a fire hazzard. Plus, they are just taking up space.
