Siamak Michael Rahimi, 56, of Santa Monica, California owns a big building in Los Angeles that he likes to use to hang tremendously huge advertising banners from. The most recent banner was for Vans Shoes. Problem is the banners are illegal in Los Angeles, according to a story in the Daily Breeze.
Rahimi. . . was arrested for installing and maintaining the jumbo-sized exterior advertisements on a vacant building and adjacent parking garage he owns at 9800 South Sepulveda Boulevard, across the street from LAX, according to the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office. . . Rahimi, LAX Enterprises and Westside Investment Group were each charged with 12 counts of illegally erecting a supergraphic sign, 12 counts of illegally maintaining an off-site sign, 12 counts of obstructing Fire Department emergency entrances and exits from the building and 12 counts for failing to identify the person or entity responsible for installing and maintaining the signs.
Wonder if the VF Corp is going to cover Mr. Rahimi’s legal costs?
