I have called the We buy cars number a couple of times to ask them to stop and the person who answers just says sure or play dumb. It never stops. I know we can win if we join together.<br /><br />Next we can work on stopping the proliferation of payday loan places.

Often the sidewalk is part of an easement designated for that purpose - the homeowner is responsible for cutting the grass and keeping the sidewalk clear (OF THINGS LIKE SNOW AND ICE). On private property, easements don't extend to placing signs but its the property owner's responsibility to remove signs that are on his/her property without authorization from the owner - not just anybody going nuts about signs all over.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246743662284890173.post-28919661702214827202014-11-19T17:57:33.764-05:002014-11-19T17:57:33.764-05:00I'm very sick of the "we buy junk cars&qu...I'm very sick of the "we buy junk cars" signs that are peppered on telephone poles all over Annandale, Alexandria, Fairfax. I reported them to our District Supervisor Penny Gross' office a year or more ago and they said there was nothing that could be done....I thought Virginia had a litter law....and the phone number is all over these posted signs so the people making this litter can be easily identified. It's unsightly, trashy and amounts to a littering problem as far as I'm concerned.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246743662284890173.post-71818348188112633852014-11-19T14:28:55.403-05:002014-11-19T14:28:55.403-05:00Interesting example that you use in your photo, th...Interesting example that you use in your photo, that sign pretty clearly violates the Virginia Consumer Protection Act's provision on mortgage rescue services...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
