Campaign Signs Along Bangerter Highway

The following is a direct quote, in italics, from the UDOT website.

The American political process is firmly interwoven into the fabric of American life. We, at the Department of Transportation, hope your political experience is a rewarding and successful one.

To that end we offer the follow information to assist you in complying with current laws and to help your campaign proceed as smoothly as possible.

The Utah Department of Transportation regularly observes campaign signs placed within UDOT right-of-way throughout the state. Many of these illegally placed signs are attached to utility poles, the right-of-way fence, and UDOT's sign posts.

The following Utah Code articles are listed below but are not necessarily direct quotes.

U.C.A. 72-7-102

A person may not dig or excavate or place a billboard, advertising sign, of any kind shall be placed, constructed, or maintained within the right-of-way, except as permitted by and in accordance with, the regulations of the highway authorities having jurisdiction over such right-of-way.

Candidates state qualifications all the time, so I'll state two of mine; I researched all sign ordinances and laws before placing a single sign. I know how to research and I obey the law. Have you noticed any other candidates obeying this law? I have.

You won't find my signs on Bangerter Highway.
