I would take it a step further and write (certified, return receipt requested) everyone that you spoke to about this, quote the law and ask about the legality of the signs.srothstein wrote:I like this idea, but with one minor change. I would start by writing to the ISD Superintendent and the president of the school board. I would quote the law to them and ask them to remove the signs or explain why not. The trick here is to get them to state that they are not a governmental agency in writing.G.A.

To start this you should send a letter to the editor of your paper, and keep doing so until its published.
Then when I wrote to the newspaper, I would add the question of how a non-governmental agency has the authority to tax you. That might help get the editor's attention and see the letter printed or more investigation by the paper.
If and or when you get a reply (they can’t say they didn’t receive the letter) then start sending letters to your State and Federal elected officials. Post the replies here and some others may send letters also.
If nothing else some of the replies should be good for a laugh.
