 As a number of new political leaders took office this year, some publicly-owned property was repainted with new names.  For instance, signs were reprinted when Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz began his new administration.  It is a topic recently examined in-depth by the Buffalo News. 

This week in our weekly Press Pass conversation -- WBFO'S Eileen Buckley and Buffalo News reporter Brian Meyer discuss how signage could be considered self-promotion for elected leaders.
