Signs seem to be popping up on park land, median strips and other such land owned by governmental entities.
If there are violations, who enforces the "laws" or "ordinances"? |
The most simple solution would be for you to just personally take them down. To do so on private property without consent is illegal but if they are on public land they are in fact already illegal and there would be no basis for them to come after you if you take them down. Someone is probably just taking advantage of hoping no one pays attention or enforces it. |

| When it comes to political signs according to town hall there is no ordinance to remove them from public land. A homeowner or HOA can remove signs if placed on their property. A resident cannot simply remove signs from public land. |

I don't believe you. Another misinformation post here.
Let's make this simple. If you're not making it up, there's an easy way to prove it. Where is the ordinance to place them on public land in the first place? Please cite it. I have not seen it.
Without a law governing the permission to have the signs placed on public land in the first place, no ordinance would be required to remove them because they would already be illegal. So you only need an ordinance for removal if there is one for placement.
I'll give you another example. Why don't we see signs littering all our public parks, the the fire station on prime Main Street land if public land is fair game for anyone wanting to place a sign? |
