Public Service Announcement
Notice to those posting signs With the upcoming political elections we want to remind the public of the city ordinances pertaining to posting of signs. This also pertains to rummage sale signs. Those signs posted illegally will be removed. Any person violating the city ordinance may be subject to criminal charges, which will be a $75.00 citation and/or a court appearance. Signs must be placed on the private property side of the sidewalks after permission has been granted from the property owner. The following is a list of the Mitchell city ordinances pertaining to sign posting. *This does not include state laws pertaining to state highway/interstate regulations. 6-3-2-3: ADVERTISEMENTS ON PUBLIC PROPERTY: No person shall put up, erect, hang, post or suffer to remain so placed any sign, poster, notice or other advertising matter upon any telephone, telegraph or electric light pole or other city owned property in the city.
