San Francisco authorities launched an investigation after Elon Musk shared a video featuring the new logo
Hours after Elon Musk shared an aerial video of the Twitter headquarters, San Francisco police launched an investigation into the situation since it was installed on the roof of the building without a permit.
As per The Associated Press, Musk allegedly lacked the necessary permits needed and had not cordoned off the sidewalk for safety. On Friday, July 28, two new reports were sent to the Department of Building Inspection in San Francisco. One shed light on the "unsafe condition" of the Twitter sign, and the other was about how the "X" sign was put up.
While speaking to The San Francisco Standard, Department of Building Inspection's spokesperson Patrick Hannan said:
“A building permit is required to make sure the sign is structurally sound and installed safely. Planning review and approval is also necessary for the installation of this sign. The city is opening a complaint and initiating an investigation.”
As of this writing, Elon Musk has not commented on the investigation into his giant "X" sign.
