Last night we talked about political signs and the need to have them taken down (when they are in violation of the law). Today we filed our first formal complaint against political signs. It’s actually quite easy thanks to Summit County’s great reporting tool. So, yes, you too can join us in our witch hunt against illegal …

During the last election, we wrote about election signs that violated Summit County and Park City laws. It is illegal to put election signs in the “public right of way.” This basically means most signs you see along the side of the road violate election law. In the case of past election cycles, we really only …

With the deadline for submitting names for the November election just under a month away, we thought it may be a good idea to keep track of who was running for what, what their goals are, and election promises they make. Thankfully Phil Kaplan just happened to assist our efforts by announcing he was running …

Remember the election a few months ago? What about those allegations of electioneering charged against both sides in the school bond election?

Fewer locations are being used today because it’s an off year election. We also heard a report from someone voting at Ecker Hill that the lines were long and election workers …

Each election cycle, signs for candidates and initiatives pop up across Park City and the Basin. It’s like an infestation of thistle that invades the public right of way. Of course, many of these signs are placed illegally. According to Summit County rules, political signs can’t be in the public right of way (at least …

All we can say is thank god it’s over almost over. Another election cycle in the books and no more signs littering our landscapes. With that in mind, here are a few thoughts on the election winners: Dave Ure – County Council: Only $500 spent on the election? Now that’s old school. Chris Robinson – …
