Initially, I did not understand that the banner spanned the street. Based on some serious problems we've experienced, we no longer allow this practice. I believe the breaking point came several years ago in another town when wind got into a banner that spanned across a street. The banner wrapped into the primary causing a fire, damage, blown fuses and an outage. At that point, it was deemed that the practice had severe safety implications and now we do not allow it.
