Polk County has a snipe sign masquerading as a political sign. It speaks against the UDO, telling people to oppose it by voting for candidates of a particular political persuasion. The sign is therefore legal, but those currently holding down elective office took meeting time to label the message a non-issue and “fear-mongering.” The cool thing is, government is rich enough to hire lawyers that can unassumedly outlaw any signs it doesn’t like.
