Mr. Lewis,
I am writing to ask if you have noticed the vendors that are setting up along Argyle Forest blvd. selling firewood, purses, puppies ,shoes, etc. They are making a nice roadway that the city spent a lot of money on and turning it into a mess. I have contacted councilman Corrigan and am waiting on a response. Is there anything that your organization can do? Also I thought that our local sign ordinance prohibited all of these local stick up signs on public right of way. It is really turning a beautiful roadway into an unsightly mess. Any help in this matter would be appreciated.
Thank you, Bob Walser
