Dangerous Sharp Edges on City Hall 2nd Floor Council Chambers Retractable Screens

The the above room, the ceiling-mounted projector screens in the open position are a safety hazard for Councilpersons, Commissioners and anyone else who comes near them. They have hard metal edges and sharp exposed metal corners which are at or near head height. Anyone who turns around quickly or stands up after picking up a bag or coat placed along the back wall is in danger of hitting their head, being cut or even poking an eye.
Council Chambers have had multiple safety-related posters displayed over the last many months. This serious safety issue in that very room needs to be corrected asap. Corner and edge guards are readily available in multiple, inexpensive executions, several of which should be able to eliminate or greatly reduce the current risk.
