Dear Mirek,
RE: Installation and Maintenance of Flag Banners for Melton Shire Council
Council would like to thank you for the installation /retrofitting and continued maintenance of the flag banners that LaMER International has provided to the Melton Shire since 2009.
We have received several comments and enquiries from other municipalities regarding this easy to use system. We have also had positive feedback from the community in regards to the banners and the continual promotions of various Council activities and events that is achieved via the banners throughout each year. As you are aware our previous system was very cumbersome. It required the use of a Cherry picker and a crew of 3-4 people every time a change of banners was required (every 2-3 months) and proved to be a very costly ongoing exercise for Council.
Since we have implemented the Spinner 360 system it has proven to be a very worthwhile investment. Council has realized a number of benefits associated with this system that include:
` Each flag can be changed over by one person from the ground hence eliminating the
use of a crane and associated traffic control and lane closures;
` As the system is so easy to use and the banner changeover process does not impact on
traffic, the frequency of banner changes has increased and provided Council with a
great ongoing marketing opportunity for Council events and activities;
` The banners do not wrap around the pole due to the design. As such the banner will
Always stay in line with the wind and be clearly visible;
` Tamper Proof lockable doors prevent the flags pulled down or the mechanism being
damaged by vandals.
Council is very pleased with the Spinner 360 banner poles and we look forward to the continued benefits associated with this system in the years to come
Yours sincerely,
Greg Wood
Civil Contracts Manager
