(11) The manner in which large neon signs and other
signboards are erected over some of the Colony's thoroughfares, projecting a corsiderable distance over the roadways, is not only a discredit to the streets themselves but causes undesirable distraction to motorists and constitutes obstrua- tions to fire-fighting. In view of their inherent danger to public safety, especially in times of typhoons, would Government exercise firmer control over the installation of these signboarda?
