Proliferated Like Weeds
There is a lot of ugly that has sprouted in Guilford in the last few years — and it’s not all political. The overabundance of temporary signage (aka sandwich board signs, etc. ) has proliferated like weeds. But unlike weeds, many of which have an intrinsic beauty to them, this temp sign epidemic needs eradicating.
I get it; you need business and want to attract customers. There are ways to do it without being an eyesore and, to some, an irritant. Perhaps local graphics designers, sign makers, woodworkers, and marketing consultants might be brought together as part of a volunteer community committee to assist business owners. I don’t answer to any of the above but I’d help. Because hey, “if you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem”. I’m pretty sure that’s how that adage goes.
