Re: Jane Dolan – Supervison Candidate
Those “Good Job Jane” signs that sprouted up overnight are illegally posted. The Cogs sign company is one in our area that has a Candidates’ Outdoor Graphic Service. They sell the candidate these signs installed and then allegedly place them in the middle of the night without permission from property owners or allegedly illegally in the public right of way.

If you pull one down Cogs usually have their name on them in small print. The candidate (in my opinion) arrogantly and knowingly hires this company to put up signs counting on them not being caught in the act and prosecuted, and that it will take awhile for property owners, the City and Caltrans to send out workers to take them down. County public works will leave them up until they rot. In the meantime Jane Dolan gets the benefit of all those signs being up and the general public not knowing the story of how the signs got there. The voters think the property owners support her. Most people outside of the political campaign circles have no idea that this company exists. It is expensive to hire them. It is also lazy and abusive behavior for a member of the Board of Supervisors to engage in (in my opinion).
Bottom line: She is responsible for her campaign signs and where they are placed. She should be out picking them up and apologizing for violated both the property owners’ and the public’s property rights. This is not the first time Dolan has done this. Last time, [1998 0r 2002] the signs said “Thanks’ Jane”.
