<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Sheri – can you please send this to OMS Managers<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I’m looking for Lamp Pole Banner Policies. Our 10-year old 1<sup>st</sup> Ave streetscape exclusively displays Albany Downtown Association banners. With our not-so-new streetscape came lots of new lamp posts all with space for banners.
Recently here have been a couple external requests to hang banners for events/commemoration and we truly appreciate that the City of Albany directed the groups to us. We’re thrilled to be the keepers of the lamp posts banner space and know we will be getting
more requests for their use. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our Design Committee is working on a policy so we can be fair and clear on what is accept and what is not. The City of Albany has a sign policy when it comes to yards signs and buildings, that’s not what I’m looking for. We are looking
to frame our policy more along the lines of non-commercial, civic use. It might be similar to the policy governing big street banners that span gateway roads and highways. Our goal is to secure continued use by ADA along with other civic use … not Wal-Mart
on every lamp pole in Historic Downtown Albany.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance for your help!<o:p></o:p></p>
