We are a community that is…

We are a community that is heavily dependent upon tourism. Unregulated signage along highways detracts from the natural beauty that tourists come to observe and enjoy. Makes no sense to detract from that which we rely upon for tax revenue and upon which the local economy depends. It seems obvious that signage is a kind of visual litter.
Advertisers now have more opportunities to reach potential consumers than ever before. Outdoor signage is outdated - most communities are eliminating outdoor signage or a least placing very tight rules on how and where outdoor signage may appear. It simply does not making sense to encourage it's deployment in a tourism dependent community.
