Informal hearing: 
Todd Young, Canton School Dept, Performing Arts Dept came before the Board requesting a banner 
change for an upcoming event. Chairman Carroll stated that he was impressed with the way Mr. Young is 
handling the sign, and that it is coming down quickly. Mr. Pando did say that he was disappointed that the 
pipe sign was not removed. It was part of the original decision that the pipe sign would be removed. Dr. 
Barker guaranteed it was not an issue to remove the galvanized pipe sign. Either he has no authority to say 
that, or it slipped his mind. Hopefully he will remember and have the sign taken down. Ms. Coffey was 
directed to send a letter on behalf of the Board regarding this issue. Mr. Young said he could not speak to 
that. Mr. Pando asked when the sign would go up and when it would come down. Mr. Young would put it 
st th th 
up on March 1 and remove it the 16 or 17 of March. Chairman Carroll discussed Mr. Young’s question 
as to why he must appear before the Board for banner changes. Chairman Carroll said they want to see a 
human being at the meeting. Mr. Pando stated that you are here for compliance to the decision. If the pipe 
sign is still up at the next informal hearing for a banner change, he may be inclined to vote NO. Motion 
was made on behalf of the Performing Arts Dept. for a banner advertising Paul Simon’s FOOLS. This
