🚧 Notice Regarding Signs in County Road Right-of-Way 🚧
We have noticed an increasing number of signs being placed along road shoulders and within the county road right-of-way. These include political signs as well as signs advertising local businesses and events.
For the safety of the traveling public, the county right-of-way must be kept clear of unauthorized signs. Signs placed in these areas can create sight-distance issues for drivers, become distractions, and may present hazards along the roadway.
County crews routinely mow the shoulders of hard-surfaced roads and maintain the right-of-way. As part of this work, signs located within the right-of-way often must be removed to allow maintenance activities to be completed safely and efficiently.
We also ask residents not to dispose of tree limbs, grass clippings, leaves, or other yard waste in road ditches or within the county right-of-way. Yard waste can obstruct drainage, create maintenance challenges, and contribute to roadway safety concerns. Ditches are designed to move water away from roadways, and keeping them clear helps protect both public infrastructure and private property.
We ask all residents, businesses, organizations, and campaign representatives to help keep county road rights-of-way clear by placing signs only on private property with the property owner's permission and outside of the county right-of-way.
Thank you for your cooperation in helping keep our roads safe, well maintained, and functioning properly for everyone.
