[fvc-wat-disc] $1500 donation from CAW Local 1106

[Jan Liggett]

Shannon,

You might ask the sign company (Cambridge Mobile) that we used here.  They
may put up signs in the rest of the region and they will know all of the
regulations and what is possible.  The sign permit fee is included in their
price.

Hi Everyone,Regarding the Mobile signs;we may not be able to use Mobile
signs in K-W.Unlike Cambridge,there are strict city by-laws prohibiting
public displays.I've contacted 4 various local sign companies with only
one company showing any interest in contacting some local businesses in
high traffic volume areas such as; King-University, King-Weber and
Fairway-Manitou etc.;that would allow us to place
large,mobile,referendum signs on their property. Even if we got the
required permission of a property or business owner we would probably
require expensive and time-consuming permits to put up a
large,mobile,election-referendum signs in K-W.I have had very limited
success in obtaining any local property/business owners permission.
Finally,mobile signs are about 2x more expensive in K-W then Cambridge
with the cost being approximately $150.00 for two weeks plus
$50.00-$100.00 permit for one sign.If anyone has any
thoughts,comments,ideas or business/property owner contacts please let
me know. Thanks,Shannon

Lawn signs are good, but how much ad space would that buy in the Record?
I
have a schedule of Record advertising rates here, but I'm afraid it's a
bit
complicated for me to understand.

There's still time--ad deadline is only three days in advance. If we can

afford it, a big full-, half-, or even quarter-page ad might reach more
people than lawn signs, but that's just my thinking.
