For sale signs

Posted in: Sherwood Forest
I am concerned at the number of 'For Sale' signs in the neighborhood. While I realize these are bad times for most people in the region I believe the multitude of lawn signs are a detriment to the value of the properties for sale. During the late 60's when an exodus of a different kind, occured in this area the home owners enacted an ordinance that limited the signage and reduced the visual impact on the area. While realtors are adamant about signage and push the tool for marketing the balance of the community suffers with and abundance in percieved home values. These signs give the signal that somethind is wrond out of the ordninary course of property turn over. Is there some common ground we can meet on with regards to signage?
