Real quick...

All you political wannabe’s remember your signs need to be removed 10 days after the election…. Not that anyone would take pictures and post them on the internet with scathing comments about how the sign code really makes the town look better. Just to be contrary.

Hey, I have a question (or three) for all you local readers that buzz through here. Evidently the Sign Code is being interpreted to say window graphics may only cover 1/3 of an architecturally distinct window. Period. Now when this thing was in the planning stage, several of the wonderful people planning it stated that if you wished to cover more than 1/3 of your window, you could, but it had to be permitted as a wall sign, and would count against that allowance.
Where did that go?
Why can a business not cover an entire window if it wishes?
How does it affect anyone but the business with the damn windows?
If a beauty salon wants to cover all its windows and work like a bunch of moles in a dark little hole why does the city have the right to tell them NO you must have light!?
Oh, and why is it only enforced it you try to get a permit? I seem to have noticed a couple windows here and there that have more than 1/3 coverage. Wonder if there is anyone out there who would take pictures and post them on the internet…

I am also curious who inspected the Flyin J sign. You know, because if these signs are like, inspected and permitted by a guy paid to do it, they will be safer, and won’t fall down, right? RIGHT? You can visually inspect a structural weld, right?

Oh, and Dave, I have no idea what post that last comment of yours addresses. But I understand what your saying.
