Public Safety Memorial committee presents $44,938 cost estimate; council to review design
Summary
The Yanceyville Public Safety Memorial committee presented design progress and a vendor quote totaling $44,938.17 for memorial, seal and footers; the committee will provide a full report for council review as members consider whether to include the town seal in the design.
Fred Smith, co-project manager for the Yanceyville Public Safety Memorial, updated the council on committee work and presented current vendor quotes. Smith listed itemized estimates: memorial $22,565; town seal in black granite (8x8) $18,964; footers $1,500 and $1,100; one 20-foot Yanceyville flagpole $809.17; total estimate $44,938.17. Smith said the committee is on track with design and planning and asked the council to decide whether to include the Town Seal.
Mayor Alvin Foster commented the 8x8 town seal is large; Smith said the Public Safety Committee will provide a full report for council review with further recommendations. No formal funding or appropriation was made at the April 6 meeting.
Why it matters: the memorial would honor law enforcement, firefighters and emergency services; the presented cost estimate gives the council a baseline for budget planning and next steps.
What’s next: The memorial committee will provide a full report for council consideration; council must decide on inclusion of the town seal and whether to fund construction in a future budget or project plan.
