Council approves EDC performance agreement for D & D sign and fills multiple board vacancies
Summary
Council adopted a resolution to reimburse D & D Main Street Bar and Grill up to $8,000 for a digital sign and approved appointments to park, planning, EDC and other boards; council also approved a first reading for a potential performance agreement with a regionally known restaurant.
The Gunbarrel City Council adopted Resolution R-2025-007 to approve an Economic Development Corporation (EDC) performance agreement reimbursing D & D Main Street Bar and Grill up to $8,000 toward installation of a new digital sign. The business reported a $22,926 sign purchase; the EDC-approved performance agreement provides a partial reimbursement as an incentive.
The resolution was read into the record and adopted on second reading. The roll-call vote recorded: Edward — yes; Jacobs — yes; Burns — yes.
Board appointments: the council also filled multiple citizen-board vacancies. Appointments included: Parks & Recreation board — Gilbert Shelby (reappointment), Linda Tracy, and Laura Young; Board of Adjustments — Linda Tracy; Planning & Zoning Commission — Charlotte Johnson; Economic Development Corporation board of directors — Jerry Rademacher (reappointment), James Slack, and Keith Bond. Several positions remain open and the city will continue advertising for applicants.
First reading announced: after an executive session, the council reconvened and the mayor read a first reading of Resolution R-2025-008 concerning a potential performance agreement with a regionally known restaurant; no final action on that matter was taken at this meeting.
Discussion versus decision: The sign reimbursement and the board appointments were formal actions with recorded votes. The R-2025-008 performance agreement was presented on first reading and no final vote was taken; executive-session items were closed without public action beyond the statutory announcement.
