Ms. Parker continues denying that her signs are illegal.  Below is the response that we received back from Curtis D. Knopp with the Washington State Department of Transportation.

Thank you for your email about this sign issue.  We will contact Ms. Parker and inform her that her political signs do not meet state regulations.  Due to the short duration until the end of the election, we will notify her that the signs will need to be removed after the election and can't be reused in any future elections.

Again thank you for taking the time to share this concern.  If you have any further questions or concerns please contact me.

This is what Sherry is saying but the County removed all of her signs on 162nd Ave that were illegal. 

Clark County Voters:

You may have heard rumors stating that my campaign signs are illegal. I hope you will take the time to read the letter from the Vancouver City Attorney’s office which states that this is not the truth.

Our campaign has not been notified by any official agency that there is any reason to take them down.

Clark County Sheriff Office said these signs are illegal and turned the case over to the Clark County Prosecuting Attorney Criminal Felony

1013 Franklin Street (360-397-2261) Contact Jeannie Bryant

CASE S06-15362

*****UPDATE 12/07/2007*****

Clark County Prosecuting Attorney Criminal Felony Jeannie Bryant has not responded to case s06-15362 . Hummm? Why do we have laws?

 

Do you think Sherry will use her Illegal sign again?

****************************

This is a position for the CLARK COUNTY CLERK

 NOT the CITY OF VANCOUVER CLERK

 

This is your hard earned union dues at work from the SW Washington Electricians Pac4.

What are laws for if no one will follow them?

Next year are we going to see STOP SIGNS with Political information on them? Who's going to stop them? The City of Vancouver?
