City of No Apostrophes

I have a confession to make -- I hate apostrophes.
Whether it be in stories or headlines, I despise them. Maybe it is because so many people use them wrong, or perhaps it has something to do with "St. James's Palace" being correct.
But, there is hope for me -- I can move to Birmingham, a city in Britain that has gotten rid of all apostrophes.
Since the 1950s, the city has slowly been removing apostrophes from its street signs, but just made the apostrophe ban official on Friday for all signs.
Apparently one of the concerns is the use of apostrophes in GPS devices, which the city claims confuses the machine making it hard to find destinations. This raises special concern when it comes to emergency personnel finding the correct address.
"Apostrophes denote possessions that are no longer accurate, and are not needed," Councilor Martin Mullaney said. "More importantly, they confuse people. If I want to go to a restaurant, I don't want to have an A-level (high school diploma) in English to find it."
