Sharonville neighbors have fun with 'annoying' signs posted in yards

SHARONVILLE, Ohio — Some Sharonville residents were frustrated with all the "no parking" signs posted around their neighborhood, but instead of complaining to the city, they decided to create a fun little decoration competition.

The signs are in place while the road is being repaved this week.

"We were all a little annoyed with the signs being every 20 feet down our street," said Natalie Sphar.

If you drive along Sharon Knoll Court and Golden Hill Drive, you'll see dozens of creative yard decorations around most of the signs, everything from Joe Burrow, to a toilet and even an alien crash landing.

Sphar said the neighborhood kids aren't the only ones who love the cute decorations.

"We had the Sharonville Police Department stop by Tuesday evening to drive through," she said. "They even brought out their K9 German Shepherd, Jack."

The construction workers who were repaving the roadway even decided to decorate some signs, Sphar said.

Initially, there was going to be a winner for whoever had the best-decorated sign. But Sphar said it was impossible to pick a winner because so many people participated.

"The winners are all of us and the prize is this neighborhood," a spokesperson for the neighborhood wrote on Facebook.

"I don't think anyone wanted the kids to feel like they lost," Sphar said. "That's the type of love we have in our neighborhood."

Sphar said the road construction should be done by Friday evening. It is unclear how many neighbors will take down their decorations once it's finished.

Some of them are Halloween-themed ... so why not leave those up?
