When is a flag also a sign? When it is a sign. 

The signs in question are not flags.

Now I see McComas signs being placed on OPA property at mailboxes. They were also initially placed along Cathell Road on OPA property. All in violation. One laughable lot location has a McComas and a "I support Public School Education" next to each other, but placed on the OPA right of way.

It may well be that Elena McComas supporters are harming her chances of re-election with all this.

Additionally, the ARC guidelines addresses real estate flags as being non-permissible.

The OPA website is still down, but I recall some Guideline language stating flags would be considered as signs. Surely no reasonable person should see any sign violation as not being a violation if the same message was on a flag.
