Oldsmar board told planet signs were removed for QR‑code update; reinstallation planned
Summary
Board members were told the city’s planetary signs were removed because the QR-code provider and sign condition required replacement; staff said communications and marketing will coordinate reinstallation to a new QR-code system.
A board member told the Oldsmar Veterans Advisory Board that several planetary informational signs have been removed temporarily while the city switches to a new QR-code system and replaces damaged signage.
The board was told the signs had deteriorated from sun exposure and that the communications and marketing department is managing the project to reprint and reinstall the signs with updated QR codes. The speaker said an earlier QR-code vendor may no longer be in business, so the city is adopting a new provider and must replace the printed codes.
Staff said the signs are in production and will be installed when the new QR codes are ready; no specific reinstallation date was given. A board member suggested the city use a QR-code redirect method that points to a stable address so future provider changes would not require reprinting the physical QR code on signs.
No vandalism was reported; the removal was described as planned maintenance tied to the QR-code transition.
