As reported from the Detroit News:
Judge suggests Big Boy may be art
Canton Township statue could be considered public icon, he says
http://www.detnews.com/2004/metro/0404/15/b01-122419.htm
"The township last December ticketed Tony Matar, owner of the Big Boy restaurant on Ford Road at Canton Center Road, charging the 6-foot plastic statue is actually a sign. Canton zoning rules restrict businesses to one monument sign per property.
Matar insists the familiar icon is a statue and is not, therefore, subject to the sign rule."
