Is anyone else already tired of the campaign lawn signs, which somehow have managed to outnumber the "For Sale" and "For Rent" signs around town?
We know, it's a mind game for the candidates. More signs = more signs. But we think sometimes the game goes too far.
One local incumbent should know better. The Kissimmee political sign ordinance reads, in part:
"Non-residential properties are allowed one political sign per candidate or ballot issue. Each sign may not exceed sixteen (16) square feet in size. Signs may be double sided, each side not to exceed sixteen (16) square feet. No illumination is allowed."
This week, we noticed that said candidate has either two signs at the former cancer center building on Oak Street, or two signs on the bank property at the corner of Oak & John Young (depending on where the lot line is). The same candidate has two signs (one big sign, one yard sign) attached to the fence on the two sides of the plumbing property immediately adjacent to the round-a-fountain on MLK Blvd. Never mind that this same candidate also has signs on immediately adjacent properties in both cases.
Games are fun, but elected officials shouldn't be playing "trick code enforcement" with their campaign signs. We deserve better.

The "Candidate" drives code enforcement nuts! He is always nagging at them about his signs that go missing and about other candidates signs that he thinks is not according to code. The tattle-tale drives everyone nuts!
The "candidate" (Gemskie) is terrible.
Go Jamie Matos!!!
SO COMPLAIN TO CODE ENFORCEMENT! ASK FOR GLENN OSANI. OR E-MAIL HIM AT GOSANI@KISSIMMEE.ORG HE SHOULD BE HAPPY TO DO IT SINCE HIS DEPT JUST GOT "RECOGNIZED" WITH A PLAQUE. PAT FISHER OR CHUCK ARE ASSIGNED TO THAT AREA, I BELIEVE.
The campaign lawn signs have not over taken the number forclosed signs yet. I doubt they will this year.
