Welcome signs a waste of money

The Editor, Re. "Welcome. That cost $50k" (The Tri-City News). There have been many comments on the proposed "Welcome to Coquitlam" signs. I hope council gets the message.

There have been many comments on the proposed "Welcome to Coquitlam" signs. I hope council gets the message. We are supporting all levels of government with our tax dollars; the money is running out. I would like to see Coquitlam explore the concept of a savings account for the times a surplus finds its way to them.

Let's make sure the signs have brackets attached so when we run out of money during the next winter snowfall they can be bolted to the front of city trucks for use as snowplows.
