As a follow up to Peppers statement, people at the Weirs I would imagine have more time to read more info on these signs (walking the boardwalk, stopped in traffic, ect.) then those driving by on Union Ave., hence more messages allowed? I'm not in love with the signs, but I'm not in love with the non-electric-flashing versions either. Of course, if I owned a business and didn't feel like paying someone to change a sign.....
The modernization of the area is a double edged sword. Yes, we're getting that urban sprawl feel. But, I don't have to drive 45 minutes to go to Lowes or Wal-Mart either. Those of us here year round must find that appealing even if we have to deal with the other inconvenices they bring.
