New AP story on Billboard/Supergraphic Advertising

In a national story that just came off the AP wire, Outcry Prompts LA To Rethink Billboard Regulations, World Wide Rush (signage company) was quoted saying "The last thing I'd ever want to do is endanger somebody".

This is contrary to what the LAFD says. They have determined this to be a fire hazard and that lives are threatened at 10801. They have put 10801 on a fire watch.

OUR MESSAGE:

STOP ILLEGAL ADVERTISING THAT ENDANGERS THE PUBLIC!



Oh, BTW, for those that would like to know what a FIRE WATCH is:

A fire watch shall be maintained until such time the Chief determines that the building or premises is safe from hazard to life or property or when fire protection equipment or systems are restored. A fire watch shall consist of a minimum of 2 qualified persons that have responsibility for continuous patrol of the entire premises for the purpose of detecting fires and transmitting an immediate alarm to the fire department and the building occupants.
