Streetscape in General

BN-04

Observation

Utility poles multiply because unused ones are not removed.

Discussion

While a minor complaint, as it is merely aesthetic, this would be unacceptable in a (competing) suburban residential area.

Recommendation

Pressure the utility companies to remove these poles.
