Description:

United States --- The DBI, City Building Inspectors, SF311, the Board of Supervisors, the Mayor and the Chief of Police should immediately shut down the "X" sign at 1355 Market Street! Nowhere else in the world, including Tokyo and Hong Kong, would such a sign be tolerated, and yet this blight is happening in our city! Is city government asleep at the wheel in San Francisco that a business, of any kind, is allowed to install a sign so completely offensive and without public input as the new "X" sign?! Why is our city allowing Musk's eff you to its neighbors and citizens allowed to operate?! SHUT IT OFF!! (311 SR 17105564)Twitter-new X sign on the Twitter HQ building. It is currently flashing rapidly and extremely brightly.It is creating a massive nighttime nuisance and making it hard to sleep (311 SR 17099224)
