The city officially denied the variance for that eyesore of a sign and our neighborhood can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing those 531 names really forced the council to listen to the people who actually live here. I will keep watching the records to ensure no new applications …

Seeing one hundred people sign this gives me hope that we can keep our neighborhood streets from turning into a commercial light show. This sign would loom over my backyard every single night so knowing I am not fighting this alone means the world to me.

My living room window faces that vacant lot where they want to put this blinding light. We are almost at one hundred signatures so please send this link to your neighbors right now to push us over that mark.

I oppose the construction and installation of this ridiculously large and bright eyesore of a sign near my neighborhood. Do not change zoning laws to allow this type of construction near residential property that would lower property values, casting light on public streets in a way that could constitute a traffic hazard, emit light pollution, not to mention destroy the aesthetics of our beautiful Brunswick community.
It will be interesting to see what 'hardship' the developers will claim in order to erect an unnecessary sign that appears to be in violation of three different zoning laws. There is absolutely no reason for the Board of Zoning Appeals to allow this sign to be erected. In fact, what a huge slap in the face to the city of Brunswick for this company to even suggest this sign here -- especially adjacent to a residential area.
I live in the Benjamin Farms & Ashton woods neighborhood, on a street that will be adjacent to this sign. Any revenue generated for the city will not offset the loss of property value for the families living in my neighborhood. What the heck are they thinking? How is this even a consideration?
It is an outrage that this size and type of a billboard would even be considered in a residential area. I would like to know which, if any, local politicians are in favor of this monstrosity. If memory serves isn't there a federal law against billboards being that close to an interstate highway passed way back during the Johnson administration? Whether or not that be the case, the city of Brunswick does not need this eye sore.
This absolutely should NOT be allowed. Our town does not need this in any way shape or form. You make businesses conform when they put up new signs and this one is way over the limits. This type of sign only belongs in non residential areas, like on I-480.
No to Jumbotron road signs! There is no reason for this type of sign to be erected.
I oppose the construction of a jumbotron along I-71 in the city of Brunswick.

These signs should never be added to a residential area affecting homeowners who purchased those homes never thinkng this could ever be a possibility. These signs need to stay OUT of Brunswick to allow for our home values to recover from the last house market crash. Please vote no for the residents of Brunswick.
