Summary
The Revere City Pocket Advisory Committee approved a $3,000 allocation from the PBD fund on Jan. 15 to pay for two wooden carved signs for Costa Park; staff will obtain quotes and complete the requisition process.
The Revere City Pocket Advisory Committee voted to approve $3,000 from the PBD fund to pay for two carved wooden signs for Costa Park.
At the Jan. 15 meeting the committee said the request covers two signs at approximately $1,500 each. Committee member Ira noted he expected to gather three quotes before the purchase and the chair said staff should send the final quote so a requisition can be opened.
Why it matters: the PBD fund is intended to support beautification and improvements in Revere’s business and meter corridors; committee members emphasized signage and street‑level improvements as part of that mandate.
Discussion and procurement steps
Ira told the committee the last quote he had seen was about $1,500 per sign and that a new member would provide an additional quote. The chair instructed that, once quotes were received, staff should open the requisition to proceed.
Motion and outcome
The committee recorded a motion to approve the $3,000 allocation. The transcript records the motion (“I make a motion to approve $3,000 for the signage for, Costa Pak.”) and a second; the meeting record shows the item was ordered/approved but does not include a roll‑call vote tally in the transcript.
Ending
Staff and the committee said they will collect three quotes and proceed with the purchase process once a quote is chosen and the requisition is opened.
