On the following ...
It was the decision of Devon County Council They consulted the town council and district council. The imperative was that the lamp posts selected were suitable for the conservation area. I remember that recomendations were brought back to a meeting of the full working party, and that I voted to accept their proposal. I think on balance the right decision was made. The lamp posts ...
Bernard For what its worth, I agree that the banners are difficult to read at that height. Apparently the design of the lamp posts make it impossible for banners to be hung any lower, or for longer banners to be hung from the existing fixings I have suggested that when they come up for renewal it might be better for them to be designed with block colours and an abstact design. ...
