Summary
This was the first test of a new Cornelius process allowing US and NC flags to exceed normal size and height limits if a public safety review clears them. The Randy Marion dealership's 114.84-foot pole and 1,800-square-foot flag passed all seven findings unanimously, and the applicant accepted a verification condition.
