During a recent government meeting, officials discussed plans to enhance the local courthouse, aiming to boost tourism in the area. A motion was made and approved to allocate $25,100 from tourism funds for sprucing up the courthouse, with the tourism committee tasked to decide on aesthetic details such as the color and size of wreaths to be used.
The meeting also touched on the installation of permanent holiday lights on the courthouse, which raised concerns regarding historical preservation regulations. Officials debated the feasibility of mounting lights on the building without violating historical guidelines, considering alternative methods such as ground-mounted brackets.
In addition to these discussions, the group set a date for their next meeting on December 5th at 4 PM, while also planning a special call meeting on November 1st to further address signage options. The officials emphasized the importance of making informed decisions regarding the courthouse improvements and signage, ensuring that all options are thoroughly evaluated before moving forward.
