Thanks for fixing this issue!

The signs are in the RIGHT A WAY, not on PRIVATE PROPERTY

Start doing your job and stop making excuses. Follow the Code as written

Concerned Citizen - What is the ordinance defining right-of-way?

What about the oversized John Blount signs with no permit & the hideous Tony Brown signs did you miss those Concerned citizen? You seem to be cherry picking signs? Councilman Thomas has signs in the right of way at the shell station at Rock Quarry & North Henry? Seems you are only concerned about candidates you don't like while ignoring clear violations!

Funny how hand written signs are all over the place in right of ways but Mr Stuart & Thomas are running around reporting on candidates they don't like.

8.12.036 - Prohibited signs.
It shall be unlawful for any person to erect the following signs in the city:
(j) Any signs placed in or extending into public right-of-way;

8.12.120 - Sign setbacks and restrictions.
(a) All signs shall be required to be located within the required front yard of a principal structure, and shall not be permitted to extend beyond the front property line into the street right-of-way. ..........

Oh thanks Mr. Alexander the NUMBER ONE offender of the sign ordinances. When I called the City they said Mr. Blount has applied for his permit stickers. Quit hiding behind poles and going around sticking your signs on private property. A business on North Henry said you posted one of your signs on his property without asking and they took it up. Then you came back and wanted to know where it went. They said they told you that you never asked their permission so you had to take your sign someone else and post it illegally as like most of your signs are!

And what is the ordinance defining where the street right-of-way starts?

Hiding behind Concerned Citizen Mr Staurt? Btw... Code enforcement has taken none of my signs, zero! If you really cared you would be reporting all the illegal signs all over Stockbridge not just political opponents! It is illegal to put up an oversized signs & then ask for permission right? Not just one sign but 7 or 8 posted by Mr Blount illegally without a permit but somehow you failed to notice, no credibility. Then you came to the city council meeting asking for code enforcement to give new candidates a break when you are the one burning up the phone lines with complaints, all against candidates you oppose. Do us a service and report all the signs in violation not just campaign signs. I guess your statement to code enforcement asking to give new candidates a break only applies to those you support with your dollars? I respect citizen rights to report violation but be consistent in reporting them all!

Again you make my point saying Mr Blount has applied for a sticker after the fact so at this point the signs are illegal & should come down until approved right?

Mr. Alexander you are a disgrace and it's about time you start leaving our former Mayor Stuart out of this. Just because it is clear you do not like him, you in no way have right to speak for the majority of us Citizens who truly admire and appreciate him. You are the one who is going around spreading lies and untruths about Mayor Stuart, Mr. Thomas and Mr. Blount. Your sporadic appearances at various churchs reveals that you are there to only get attention for your campaign. We will continue to pray that God will truly heal your heart of all of your hateful, deceitful actions and join us in developing Stockbridge to it's fullest. We have yet to talk with anyone who supports your actions or deeds of any kind. BTW we also reported 4 Masonic signs that are up illegally without permits!

Interesting no one has brought up the sign posted in the median on Davidson Parkway at 138 in Clayton County which is not even in the city.

Typical City Hall message. You are so, so wrong. Your Code Enforcement officer was taking up signs on Private property last Friday afternoon. We had two folks see him do it! Stay out of the politics. Do your jobs!

While our code of ordinances makes several references to Right of Way, there is no definition of Right of Way because it varies for different streets. The Right of Way distance is typically determined based on the road classification of the particular street. In regards to the placement of signage, it is the individuals responsibility to ensure that signs are placed outside of the Right of Way. If anyone has a questions about the right of way on a particular street, they may contact City Hall.

Thanks, About time someone explains what the code should really read. Plain English works for most Citizens. Seems like your Code Enforcement is only going after political signs. There are numerous commercial signs, church signs, organizational signs, work wanted signs etc, etc. that have been out in right aways for weeks but nothing is done. We just ask that you enforce the Code equally across the board to include the City them self.

Still talking out of both sides of your mouth Mr. Impeached Concerned Citizen...lol!!! Mr Law & order was impeached for not following the rules, kicked out of office..smh!!!One day it's the political opponent candidates, then code enforcement but when your store bought candidates violate the city ordinance it's not them just attack the code officer. Talk about inconsistent & no credibility!

There are no signs in the right-of-way at this location.
