Prop 201, 202 Advocates Ignore

 Scenic Drive Sign Ban

 

October 13, 2002

First, we want to thank everyone who has made the voluntary ban of political signs on the Scenic Drive a success for six election seasons . "Everyone" includes the candidates, volunteers and residents who have supported our efforts to reduce roadside pollution in this popular tourist location [Read More].  

Unfortunately advocates of Indian gaming propositions have recently posted large campaign signs on the Scenic Drive. We have contacted the supporters of Arizona Joe's proposition (201) but there has been no response. Then workers for Proposition 202 posted signs to match the 201 signs one for one. We contacted Proposition 202 folks and they apologized and have promised to take their signs down in the next two days. 

Take a ride on the Scenic Drive, Scottsdale Road from Happy Valley to Carefree Hwy., and see who is following the almost 40 year Scenic Drive tradition and who is not.  We don't like to spend our time and hard earned Scenic Drive donations getting candidates and proposition advocates to pitch in and help preserve tradition and the environment. We request the advocates of Proposition 201 and 202 will take their signs down, immediately.
