Charles Paiva is nuts. Using his logic, New York City would have to tear down the Statue of Liberty, because it is a "non-conforming structure" and it "wouldn't be fair" to all the newer structures following the law. The Won Lee sign is an historic, landmark sign. I am a native DeLandite, now middle-aged. I have many fond memories of that sign as a boy (it said "Jack's Boulevard Restaurant" in those days)-- it effectively marked the northern limits of DeLand and was considered a landmark. We knew when we had pedaled out that far on our Schwinn Sting Rays that we had accomplished something. Google "Citgo sign" to see all the lengths Boston has gone to to preserve that "tacky" but historic, landmark sign there. City commission, back off! Leave Seamus and his sign alone and stop messing with my memories!
