Speakers raise concerns about "Pure Michigan" stickers and trail signage
Summary
Meeting excerpts show staff and commenters questioned the size, placement and branding implications of proposed "Pure Michigan" stickers on trails and how the program would control signage.
Meeting participants questioned whether adding "Pure Michigan" branding to local trails would create small advertising "mini billboards" and how the city would control placement and design.
"How big are these stickers? Where do they go? Are they gonna Little mini billboards?" asked Commenter (Speaker 4), asking for specifics on size and placement. Another speaker said the idea of adding Pure Michigan branding raised concerns about tying local trailways to an external brand without clear display standards. "I have concerns about that," said Commenter (Speaker 1).
Staff said the local program generally does not plan driveway signs or individual signage at that level and that detailed design decisions have not yet been finalized. The transcript did not specify who proposed the stickers, the approving authority, or any sign standards and did not record a formal decision.
No motion or vote on signage was recorded in the provided excerpts.
