Elections and Signs.
Hi Neighbours, today is the last day for nominations to for Councils, Hospital Boards and the mayoralty.
Sadly once again we have already seen some signs stolen which is not only annoying but is also expensive. The signs cost about $40 each.
Some years ago we had a problem with a young group of supporters of a particular candidate, removing and destroying signs of another candidate, the cost to that candidate was $2,000 and the Mayoralty. I would urge all neighbours to watch out for signs in your neighbourhood and to keep an eye on them for the prospective candidates.
