Etc/GMT-5

Starting at 17:18 Watch it because the interim solicitor wants to do the billboard (in Radnor-speak "off premises" signs) B.S. Lower Merion style - i.e. public hearing and ordinance passing in same night. Radnor residents..trust a Lower Merion resident on this one - you do NOT want the precendence of blow-by ordinances. Why can't the BILLBOARDS (call 'em what they are) be on the Blue Route? if not the Blue Route, why not the 5th Ward, specifically by the R100 Septa Tracks behind Bryn Mawr Hospital's buildings on Glenbrook? They will be seen by tons of Septa riders and no one else because the land dips low. And at Five Points there already is a tarp-like billboard - attached flush to the drycleaner's wall at Old Railroad where the teeny rowhouses begin - and that sign has been there for years - don't know if it's HT or LMT or if it is even legal. MAY 26th is the meeting date? - it would be nice if SCRUB showed up, wouldn't it?

Two thumbs up for this public service video for Radnor.

Radnor citizens who are on the fence about attending on May 26th
(or not planning to bother) and who didn't go to May 7th Haverford Township hearing on billboards might stop by http://www.saveardmorecoalition.org/node/3101.

Participation can be a fun and informative night out--a potential side benefit of making a little time to try to protect one's home environment from misplaced intrusions.

So, I wonder if Radnor wants the In forma pauperis lawsuit filer to erect a billboard that looks like the ones below since he is apparently going to the Supreme Court on this? As in SCOTUS? US Supreme Court? Now if Radnor's Interim Solicitor and Township Commissioners don't say NO to billboards, and someone wanted to post the billboards below, would anyone be able to stop them?

And, here's a Levitra sign - you know, erectile dysfunction? How are y'all going to answer the "what's Levitra mommy and daddy?"
