Individuals do not have the right to do this. Call 311.
I want to note for example that there are explicit exceptions that all for signs on public property to promote political candidates. So there could be other exceptions as well concerned public policy issues.
If you remove signs on public property there is a good chance that you are actually the one breaking the law so don’t do it.
This is not true at all - pp is correct.
Signs in places like medians, side of the road, etc are categorically exactly like litter and anyone can remove them and dispose of them.
Private property is another story, obviously.
In DC campaign signs are permitted on public property, like medians or right of ways, provided one has a permit. If you take down signs but they have a permit the you are breaking the law, theft and vandalism.

There is a neighbor who is very much against the River School moving campuses and has blasted the neighborhood with lawn signs.
It is one thing if someone is putting it on their private property - but some of the signs are on green space outside of public property (like the neighborhood elementary school)
Is this allowed? Where do you find the regulations?
