          <div> I can only speak of Tulsa and Portland examples as those
            are the two metros where I've seen these most prolifically,
            though if you look on the back of many stop signs or the
            left side of the street after an intersection at the edge of
            a district (neighborhood), there will be a round sign
            (probably using a blank W10-1) with the district's logo. 
            These signs line the perimeter of the district, making it
            possible to form the administrative boundary of the
            district.</div>
