A releasable retention assembly includes an elongated flexible member, a retention member and a lock mechanism. The flexible member has opposite end portions and a length sufficient for wrapping at least once about an utility pole to retain a cover in place on the utility pole. The retention member is secured to one opposite end portion of the flexible member and defines a slot through which the other opposite end portion of the flexible member can extend. The lock mechanism includes a latch element mounted to the retention member for undergoing pivotal movement between angularly displaced latched and unlatched positions relative to the other opposite end portion of the flexible member extending through the slot of the retention member. In the latched position the latch element is engaged with and wedges the flexible member within the slot against the retention member to thereby hold the other opposite end portion of the flexible member stationary in relation to the retention member and maintain the flexible member tightened about the utility pole. In the unlatched position the latch element is disengaged from and unwedges the flexible member within the slot to thereby allow the flexible member to loosen about the utility pole. The lock mechanism also includes a spring element biasing the latch element to the latched position and a release lanyard that may be actuated to move the latch element from the latched position to the unlatched position.
