The "cms announcement block" was a custom approach to being able to position announcements to editors in specific places in the site. It was created by the CMS team. Almost as soon as this block was created and rolled out, we switched to using the Sitewide Alerts contributed module which offered all the power of the cms announcement block and so much more. The CMS announcement block was rendered obsolete within weeks of when it was created.
To avoid cruft and confusion, the cms announcement block should be removed from the codebase.
