As I was driving on I-280 back from Santa Clara, CA (aka Levi Stadium home of the 50th Superbowl game), I saw a Sign "Oracle Cloud ERP #1" on a shared Oracle building shared with Price Waterhouse Inc several miles away.  

 

Oracle, CEO Larry Ellisson is leading the Superbowl spirit with a 18 story building super-graphic sign in place on its shared office tower on Almaden Boulevard.

 

   

 

According to San Jose City Planning Building and Code Enforcement, Oracle did not even apply for a permit a month ago.

 

To hire contractors remove this monster sign will be a challenge.  According to San Jose Mercury News Oracle Commercial Sign is NOT legal.

 

This may not make much difference even if the maximum fine of $2,500 a day is imposed. Mr Ellison has a networth of $49,300,000,000.00  May be he can trade part of Lanai Island instead.

 

It is funny on I-17 Exit sign there was a crooked undersized sign which says "Levi Stadium" I have not seen any banners, realtors "buy, buy, buy" signs on the freeway. At least not yet.

Maybe if the city demands they will just take the sign down.  Have a great night.

I can see a court battle.  It's not a sign, it's a building and it's painted.  Call the attorneys

It may be the City will drag its feet as it is doing on the enforcement.....

 Good morning Sam Shueh . You know they'll story, money talks. And with sound $43 billion the owner of Oracle could do a lot of talking.

Sam,  maybe it's time for you to think of that buy, buy, buy sign. Get permission first. :)
