Why Do Police Pick Up Garage Sale Signs?

Under the direction of the City Council, the City of Robinson is dedicated to making Robinson a beautiful place to live. In helping to accomplishing this, the Robinson Police Department is tasked with enforcing the City's ordinances which include enforcing the garage sale sign ordinance. This effectively helps prevent the proliferation of garage sale signs placed improperly in Robinson.

Robinson recognizes the need for these signs. Three reasons to regulate garage sale signs are to preserve and improve the visual quality of Robinson, to eliminate hazards to pedestrians and motorists brought about by the distraction of signs, and to ensure compatibility with adjacent and surrounding areas.

When garage sale signs are posted illegally, the police department will remove signs that are not in compliance with the Code of Ordinances. Removed garage sale signs can be recovered at the police department within 24 hours of their being removed.
