Description
I called the people listed on the sign and they said they do not have any apartments available at 67 Chestnut St. They also don’t seem to have apartments available now at 71 Chestnut either. Which means both of these signs are illegal and are basically just advertising for the company. They should be removed.

So, I just wasted too much of my day reading the city’s code on signs, but it is plainly obvious that there are multiple specific violations playing out here, (especially the requirement to remove 3 days after rental/sale) but if all else fails this historic / overlay district clause has it covered: “1. General Standards. Signs should be designed and placed so as to complement the building, neighboring signs and buildings, and the overall neighborhood.”
This is just a business spamming the neighborhood in the ugliest way possible.
BRC RICK, COREY, and JOSH: We need you! We will be watching—thank you.
