Huber Heights commission votes to pursue outdoor athletic mural at a local business
Summary
Commission members voted Jan. 20 to proceed with an outdoor athletic mural after the high school declined an exterior installation and a local business agreed provisionally to host the mural.
The Huber Heights Arts & Beautification Commission voted Jan. 20 to move forward with plans for an outdoor athletic mural after discussion of potential host locations.
Staff reported that the contracted design firm (MSA) is waiting on a confirmed location before finalizing plans. Commissioners said the high school declined an exterior installation; a local business has provisionally agreed to host the mural on its exterior wall if the commission proceeds.
During discussion, Chair Sarah Chapman asked whether members were aligned to proceed with the business-hosted outdoor option and called for a vote. A motion to select the outdoor location — referred to in the meeting as the option at “Lee’s” — was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Commissioners expressed a desire for the mural to have high visibility and to support local institutions; no budget amount, contract language, or formal timeline from MSA was discussed on the record. Staff committed to continue design coordination once a location is confirmed and to return further details to the commission at a future meeting.
Next steps recorded in the meeting included staff follow-up with MSA once the site is finalized and an anticipated update at the commission’s Feb. 18 meeting.
