To the UofLCardShark & friend-

THANKS!- for your efforts to rid Louisville of Ugly Street spam.

FYI - Apparently the Public Works Dept has also been clearing bandit signs from along many of the main roadways.

The government agency that has enforcement responsibility for the sign is IPL (Inspections, Permits, & Licenses. (see link below)

Louisville Metro IPL Dept.

Thanks for the info. We are doing what we can. Also thanks for clueing me in on another offender, as there are other signs that we have targeted to complain about. Hopefully the city will follow up on our complaints as these signs are actually too large for us to remove.

Keep up the fight and thanks again.
