Vienna Sign Permits: More Silliness from Vienna Town Hall
From Vienna code:
During election campaigns, candidates and their supporters should be aware of the Towns´ regulations pertaining to political signs: Five temporary signs not exceeding 20 square feet total may be posted on residential property after receiving a permit and posting of a $25 bond. Signs may be erected up to 30 days prior to election day and must be removed within five days after the election. It is unlawful to place signs on street lights, telephone poles, markers or other signs, or to place a sign without a permit within 10 feet of the curb or edge of pavement. For more information about signs, call the Planning and Zoning Department at 703-255-6341.
Why is this not enforced ever in Vienna? It is unenforceable that's why. Free speech, a Constitutional protection, can't be limited by Maudasaurus' poorly worded code. All of these silly Vienna codes are designed to let the powers that be mess with their enemies and protect their buddies. It's all about subjectivity versus objectivity and guess what? Maud doesn't like anything that's objective!

It's a dumb "law."
Do you think Mad Maud and Mayor Boob ever give their $25 deposit? Maud does put her green "Robinson" sign in her yard every 2 years.

SUCH TOWN CODES ARE ONLY ENFORCED (IF AT ALL) AGAINST THOSE NOT IN THE GOOD GRACES OF THE TC. BY THE WAY DOES ANYONE KNOW OF ANYTHING GOOD THAT HAS RESULTED FROM THE COUNTY INVESTIGATION OF THE VOTER FRAUD THAT WAS CLEARLY PRESENT IN THE LAST VIENNA ELECTION?

Good question, HL. Perhaps I'll send Jane a copy of the letter she sent me a while back (where she promised to investigate any irregularities) and ask how much progress she has made.

If anyone still has a copy of the literature Jeannemarie Devolites Davis sent around about 6 weeks ago, please send to HV for all of us.
It made a mention of eliminating fraud at the polling place. Since Jeannemarie was present when the incidents took place, I wonder if she is actively pursuing the the problems in Vienna.
I'm sure the answer is "no."
