Dow Constantine County Executive

Several years ago I wrote you commenting about the practice of wrapping our buses with advertising and how it degrades the 'street scene' when we see these moveable bill boards on our streets and roads. To me they didn't belong in our area and please discontinue the practice.

You replied that it was a trial and would be discontinued in the future as you had received many negative comments. I see in the media that they are again being considered for additional income. I fully realize that you are doing everything you can to balance the budget and this is a source of income.

I question whether the amount of income that it generates is worth the negative image that this area will present to its citizens and tourists. I hope that it is not continued, at least assure us that it will be on only a few busses and please off the windows.

Thank you,
Leon A. Harman
