Design Chair Phillip Wright shared he did get some preliminary pricing quotations for landscaping and putting in a
gazebo, tables/chairs, fencing for the vacant corner lot that the town has a lease agreement with the bank for over the next five years. This quotation was in response to Kevin
Bowman’s request so that he could take this before the Kiwanis Club members in order for them to possibly grant them up to $15,000 for this community project. Mr. Wright sug-
gested that the gazebo could be ordered and placed on the lot prior to July 10 and that subsequent work on the lot could begin even with the gazebo in place. Mr. Wright also said
that he is working with a local surveyor to create a base sheet in order to consider streetscape items such as planting trees, benches, etc. He would be also working with STMS
Designer Lew Holloway to create this sheet.

overall. He noted the recent new business activity and the businesses working together to promote downtown and each other.
