Weekend Tidbit: Boost Mobile to pay over $900,000 in fines over billboard?







*Mar 25 - 00:05*How many zoning regulations can a simple billboard violate? Over 70. That’s right. Poor Boost Mobile was the victim of a rather sudden crackdown in NY City.

That’s the deal with a Boost Mobile billboard down in Astor Place in New York City. Its 70-plus infractions have totaled $955,000, according to the Daily News. Of course, Boost Mobile itself has nothing to do with this. It’s a dispute between the billboard companies and the City of New York. Boost just happens to be the latest target.

Oddly enough: Billboards have appeared in the same area, at fourth and ninth, for over 70 years from various companies and services, but only now are officials cracking down. The billboard companies (and Boost) are understandably upset. Hey, we suppose the NY City budget has to balance somehow, eh?
