North of 466 is older and yet a rough approximation tells me that the signs are wearing better, but there are still more poor ones than would be expected.

Here's an idea, let's let this thread run a few days and those reading it start paying attention to every single street sign they see and then come back and state that they don't see a higher % of signs that are looking pretty poor than there should be given their age?

Or are y'all expecting me to drive around and take a plethora of photo's proving my point, that some would still argue with?

As I said in my original post, I don't know who is responsible for the signs, but I will bet right now that if it is the developer the usual suspects will quickly jump in and say there's hardly any that are failing.

Wanna bet?
I suggest you contact the following. Sam has publically stated that if you see something that needs attention let them know. (they cannot be everywhere). Give them a call.
