Posters in Shop Windows
Something that really narks me is the profusion of out-of-date posters in shop windows.
I consider it’s not the responsibility of shop owners to take down leaflets and posters that they have kindly allowed to be fixed in their shop windows.
A couple of organisations I belong to, Rotary and Otorohanga’s District Council sponsored Events Committee, are fussy about getting around town and taking posters down within a day or two of the event having been held. They even take a spray can of window cleaner with them to remove the cello-tape marks.
The worst looking window is a vacant hot-bread shop in Otorohanga. Posters are stuck on the outside of the shop front, so should be very easy to remove. But no. There is a religious event poster from March 2017 and beside it is another poster for a similar event later this month – same organisation. One wonders.
