No Posters

Kenora City Council is planning to draft a by-law preventing localevent organizers from putting up posters on downtown utility poles.

Councillor Dave McCann says the tape used for putting up posterswill damage the paint on the new light standards along Main Streetand can become an eyesore.

Council is talking about following the footsteps of city's like Edmonton and Toronto, which have installed community bullitin boards in hightraffic areas, where posters can be pinned up.

One area being considred for a community bulletin board is the new Lake of the Woods Plaza beside the ScotiaBank on Main Street.
