=====================
Candidates, PLEASE keep your signs out of the Right of Way - I've noticed several banners that are in violation as well as many yard signs. Be sure to get permission before you put a sign on someones property.
That's all for now - I'm sure there will be more soon.
If you would like to be added to my email list, send a note to lakeway@bain.us and I'll get you added (or removed).
Have a GREAT weekend!
