What in the world is going on with Monument’s Town Council? They’ve put a ban on political yard signs. Come on!
Last night, I attended an emergency meeting to reverse the ban. It was all just a political charade.
Instead, the Monument mayor and other elected officials doubled down, dug their heels in, and chastised the community for wanting the never-before-enforced ordnance reversed.
I’ve lived in this community for 20 years. Political yard signs clutter our neighborhoods for sure, but they’re a Constitutional right to freedom of political speech!
And in a nutshell, political signs are the way we become educated about our upcoming elections.
Did you know there are two candidates running for D38 school board. I’ve met Tom Olmstead—he’s exactly what we need on our school board today.
Let’s pass on the word—vote for Tom Olmstead for D38!
