@cbsnewscolorado: Colorado State University is moving forward with the installation of 12 large electronic billboards around its Fort Collins campus, despite a longstanding city ordinance that prohibits such signage elsewhere in the community. Eight of the billboards will be placed along the campus perimeter and four within the campus itself. While city officials expressed concern that the move undermines decades of efforts to limit visual clutter, CSU is exempt from local regulations as a state entity operating on state-owned land. The university says the signs will enhance campus safety by providing real-time alerts. However, CBS News Colorado learned that the billboards will primarily be used for advertising. The billboards, which were purchased and installed by Street Media Group, came at no cost to Colorado State University. #colorado #coloradostateuniversity #billboard #fortcollins
I was fine with the idea of them for notifications but the fact that advertisers got their grubby little mitts into the heart of foco pisses me off

first off campus safety is a joke. they have a “text system” but it’s so ambiguous that it causes more panic. they don’t actually tell us anything. second, there’s not even a place for it?? where would they put it cause there’s literally no where it would fit well and be seen from the street

I've said it once about the traffic cameras and I'll say it again about these billboards, If we hand out battery grinders at the homeless shelter and let the residents know how much copper is in these bad boys they will be gone in minutes.
