Title :
The future of outdoor media systems
Abstract :
Our American cities are run by mayors, city managers and councils who are endeavoring to reduce energy costs, provide enhanced public safety and improve their environs, all with reduced revenue streams. It seems an impossible task. To add to this challenge, our form of civic government has been divided or partitioned into segments to distribute tasks toward experts in their fields. These divisions compete regularly for funding; a never ending and sometimes politically charge situation.
