Council approves streetscape tiles and honors longtime local resident
Summary
As part of the consent agenda on March 23, Auburn's council approved streetscape and public-art recommendations that include commemorative tiles honoring local residents and organizations; family members attended the meeting to be recognized.
The Auburn City Council on March 23 approved recommendations from the streetscape history and art advisory committee that will add commemorative tiles to the downtown streetscape.
A council member who moved the measure noted several honorees by name and thanked property owners and family members who attended the meeting. "We have Charlie Yu, Harriet Crandall, Key Chin, and Leadership Auburn, but we also have David Albright. And, his son is here tonight, so I just wanted to pull this and express my gratitude," the council member said.
Council discussion acknowledged that the tile design was included in the meeting packet and expressed appreciation for owners who have started repairs on boarded or deteriorated storefronts. The item was approved as part of the consent agenda and passed on roll call.
The council did not attach additional funding or conditions to the approval during the meeting; follow-up with the streetscape/history/art advisory committee was implied for implementation details.
