Key concern: driver distraction from roadside signs like Mount Murray example
Santon Parish Commissioners
No ObjectionThe Commissioners have considered the application and have no objection to neat, well designed and unobtrusive “for the purpose” signs; It is imperative that all applications for signs should clearly indicate just what the finished product will look like; the Mt. Murray sign mentioned above can certainly be considered a distracting danger
