And again, since that is against the town code, the enforcement officers should have removed them at first site, not having them sit there now almost 3 months after the election is over.
or any citizen could go take it down |

The soccer fields are on school district property ... political signs should never have been up on school district property.

Then will you go and take it down? Or did you already? As I read the law, it is not my job to enforce the law. Town Code, Section 270.151.1.C
Quoted Text
No person shall place or erect a political sign on any property owned by the federal government, State of New York, the Town of Rotterdam, New York, or any other municipality, special Town water or sewer district or school district, including the paved and unpaved rights-of-way of roadways, located in the Town of Rotterdam, New York.
Also, per section H, it doesn't appear that I am "empowered to take it down, and I may be actually taking someone's private property that they placed outside accordance with the law.
Quoted Text
The Town Building Inspector/Code Enforcement Officer, Zoning Officer and all police officers are empowered to remove any sign which is erected or placed in violation of the provisions of this section and to dispose of the sign in any appropriate manner, including trashing. Removal shall be without the necessity of prior notice to the candidate or anyone else.

the police officers are far tooooooo busy to get out of their cars in winter to take down a sign - just look around rotterdam signs as far as the eye can see
and the building insdpectors are working on all the new building projects |

They might as well leave the signs up until the next election as the same people will be running again. |

I thought you had said that the sign was by the entrance to the Soccer fields - so I assumed you met on the school district property. And -actually - since you are the one bothered by the sign ... it really is up to you to do something about it, I didn't put the sign up and am not really bothered if it stays up. |

Funny. I didn't see the check in my mailbox to show that I was on the payroll as a code enforcement officer or police officer. |

You seem to be upset about the sign .. but you want me to do something about it. I am just stating that if it bothers you -- then YOU should do something about it. period. |

Good point -- I like Kevin and don't want to see him arrested -- you on the other hand --- I don't much care for -- so you can try to take the sign down. |
