Wait, the complaint is that they look like penises, so the solution is to chain them together in heavy metal collars?

The city is looking into retrofitting the posts with metal collars and chains that run between them,

And they think that collaring and chaining these "symbols' will stop the debate.

This should fun to watch!

Maybe it was the vinyl weather covers that city employees would roll down over the posts that got everyone's attention?

I've got an idea -- maybe integrate some water art -- an occasional fountain from each one at random intervals?

I was thinking the same thing! Maybe they should put latex over them to hide them...

What a bunch of ding-dongs.

The people in the city of Keizer feel that they got screwed.

"...the posts were ordered from a catalog and looked much different on paper."

We'll never get it on the album cover!

A few years back a local woman wrote a complaint in the voice of the people section of our local newspaper.

She was upset over a picture of a naked baby on a billboard because it was winter. She feared that people would see the billboard and assume it was ok for naked babies to be out in the snow.
