Board discusses signage funding; members urge Main Street and city coordination
Summary
Board members said Main Street received $4,000 and that the city received $40,000 for wayfinding; the board urged Austin Sims and city staff to coordinate complementary signage and maps for the West End and other locations.
Jefferson County Board of Tourism members discussed signage funding and asked Main Street and city staff to coordinate wayfinding and maps.
A board member said Main Street was awarded $4,000 and that an additional $4,000 previously discussed would come from the city; the member sought clarity on how that award was communicated and who should follow up. "I think we awarded the Main Street program $4,000 and then the additional 4,000 that we agreed upon was gonna come from the city," the board member said.
Another member noted the city received $40,000 for wayfinding and that Main Street also received funds; members agreed it would be appropriate for Austin Sims to work directly with the city so signage and maps are complementary for the West End and other areas. The board did not take formal action but asked staff and interested members to assist with coordination.
The discussion emphasized coordination rather than a new expenditure decision; staff said Austin Sims intended to contact the city to begin the work if that had not already started.
