Good point. I'll mention it to the Boss.

If it is an area where freezing happens, make sure that ice can't push
the sign off the wall after a few years!

N. California. Never seen freezing. A few frosts, but it doesn't snow here or
freeze regularly.

California? Oh my.
You can count on a permit being required, erection by certified, bonded,
insured, and annointed sign erectors, such sign being constructed of
non-carcinogenic, enviro-friendly, and bio-degradable material. Further, the
sign will probably have to be certified as not being within 1000' of a
school, church, park, library, public building, or car wash.
What provisions have you made (such as netting) to prevent injury by falling
letters?
Then, too, there is the annual license.

The environmental impact study could cost millions alone.
