Signs appear contradictory to municipal policy, reignite debate
This pottery and home accessory business erected Chinese-only signs across from Richmond City Hall, despite apparent (non-enforceable) policies that encourage English on 50 per cent of signage.
The Chinese-only signage of a new business, in the sightlines of Richmond City Hall, is renewing doubt on the effectiveness of the municipality’s English sign policy and “de-cluttering” bylaw.
“The signage issue is never ending,” said community activist Kerry Starchuk, who has long contended the decades-long controversy is worsening without an enforceable bylaw directing businesses to include an official language.
