Summary

Kira Hirdrich presented a consolidated exterior signage plan to direct visitors to a single entrance: updated post-and-panel signs and a monument sign at the government center, with bids planned for early 2026 and installation timed to the entrance change.

Kira Hirdrich, the county's facilities manager, presented the county's new exterior signage package, calling it a simpler, cleaner system of post-and-panel signs and a new monument sign at the government center. She said the package was developed with the county executive and the county clerk and is designed to direct visitors to a single main entrance.

Hirdrich said the signage will go out to bid early in 2026 and installation is timed to coincide with closing the west entrance and directing visitors to the east entrance. She noted the monument sign at the government center includes commemorative text that will need font adjustments for legibility. Committee members were asked to provide comments on the proposed signs within the next few weeks so staff can incorporate changes into the bid set.

A supervisor asked whether the signage was already budgeted. Hirdrich said exterior signage was included in the overall project budget; the committee discussed a $100,000 sign-budget line that had been part of the original project funding.

Hirdrich said staff will do field placement with the sign vendor when installation occurs to ensure accurate location and legibility.
