This is the best picture I could get with my phone while driving in the car, but if you enlarge it, you can really capture the the ugliness of it.

The City Council gang....Quan, Kaplan and Schaff ...are running for Mayor and think that we should reward them by voting for them. Vote and choose wisely.

This sign with directions to Jack London, Chinatown, freeway has been defaced like this for years. WTF Oakland elected officials?? Who runs this city, the scofflaws, no doubt.

Thank you.

Yes, thank you for reminding me this issue has been open for over 30 days now. Any word on getting a new graffiti-free sign?

Reported months ago. Graffiti is still there. It is ugly.

I just passed this sign on my way out of town on Friday, and there is so much graffiti on it, you can't even read the destinations: Freeway, Jack London Square, Chinatown, etc. You have done nothing to fix it, and it was reported six months ago. What gives, City of Oakland?

Four months since my last comment, and the sign is worse. You can't read anything on it. More graffiti, but thanks for reminding me.
