GARAGE SALE SIGNS

This morning I got up eager to go to garage sales in Dyer, IN. The very first one I went to didn't have any signs posted showing the way. The only reason I found it was Mapquest. I asked the person running the sale why they didn't have any signs out and his reply was Dyer won't let them put any out and they have someone driving around taking them down. The reason for this is people put signs up and when they are over don't take them down. When driving around I did see other signs. Why were these allowed to stay up. It's who you know maybe? Dyer, what you should do is let people put the signs up and about midweek go around take down the signs that were not taken down by the people having the sale, go to that address and present that person with the sign and a ticket for cluttering the town. This would bring in additional income to the town and save gas (with today's prices) from having someone drive around looking for signs on garage sale days which are usually Thursday, Friday and Saturday. This would keep peace in your town.
