Ferrparts in Rancho Cordova in trouble with landlord for flying American flag

angelo,to bad you're not the land lord,besides I think ferrparts is moving into their own building soon,I hope Don flies the flag there too! and for your building it looks great every time I go by,I'm so proud to say I worked on it and boy I sure did notice the flag pole,way up there,

 

I'm not sure when they are moving into the new building, but if it's within the next 30-60 days, I would fly the flag every day.
What are they gonna do about it? Evict them? Don earned the right to fly the flag. I support him 110% on this one.

 

Thats amazing... not much more I can say.

 

That landlord is out of his mind

 

Unbelieveable!!!!!

 

My favorite part is that the landlord wants to "keep the building looking nice," so he wants the flag taken down.

 

"The property manager didn't want to be filmed by our CBS13 cameras,"

Gee - I wonder why?? Certainly no shortage of knuckleheads in this world.....

He should put a Italian Flag up instead!!

 

Just installed a 50' flagpole in a 27K SF office project we own and it was difficult to get approved...go figure? Several federal requirements - flag has to have light on it after dark and if not, it needs to be taken down at dusk. All other federal holidays need to be observed. It's a Tenant expense in our case and the Tenant's were more than happy to oblige. However, sometimes cost becomes an issue [electricity and manpower]. Outside of these items, I couldn't see a reason why you wouldn't want to fly it....

Cheers!

 

Approved by who? If you own the property california civil code 1353.5 affords you the protection to fly an American flag (according to protocol) without obstruction. Unfortunately this does not transfer to the benefit of a renter as per the original post in this thread.

Edited to state "American Flag".

 

Wish I had known that when we applied. We had to go through city planning & building department and it wasn't just a quick and easy "over-the-counter" process.
