Looks like a lot of time and effort went into making and erecting this. The Sign Division will be notified to remove this illegally mounted advertisement. Thanks for the pic.
Robn - the owner of this site led a very high profile battle to get a cell phone company to remove it's signs from poles and trees in the city. It is a little elitist to say someone else can't illegally hang their signs, but you can.
To be clear we do not support this and have nothing to do with the posting of the sign. We do love our users though. As far as I know it was AT&T that hung their own utility cabinets over the sidewalks illegally and not their users, but I get your point EP/ISP.
Why focus on this one sign? They're all over our neighborhood! And they nail them up too high for someone (like me) to pull them down easily. Chutzpah, that's what it is. Why can't LCI or police call them up and warn them to remove all signs or face a fine?
i'm pretty sure thats what they do. i can only hope that they also keep tabs on who many times who breaks the laws so they dont just keep warning repeat offenders.

Seems very useful, esp if many residents in this area aren't in the habit of using the site yet.
Perhaps place the sign on a tall stake instead?

Darnell,
It must be part of the great elitist conspiracy attempting to over-empower city residents.

Darnell,
I'm just pulling your leg. Nothing drives me more crazy than seeing big signs (Got Junk?) on poles.

Hey Guys, I have tried to call the people who put them up in our neighborhood a number of times but it always goes to Voicemail.
