Summary
The Uptown Butte Business Improvement District Board of Directors on March 26 approved a 12-month social media contract with Megan Chang Creative, signed a website contract with Cassie Benson (initial payment $1,500), and allocated $5,000 to Main Street Uptown Butte for street tree planning and implementation.
The Uptown Butte Business Improvement District (BID) Board of Directors on March 26 approved several vendor contracts and a small grant for streetscape planning as part of its regular meeting.
The board voted to engage Megan Chang Creative for a 12-month social media contract after reviewing three local proposals. The motion to select Megan Chang Creative was made by Matt Stajcar and seconded by Maisie Sulser; the motion passed unanimously. The board asked the vendor to prepare a contract for signature.
The board also confirmed that a website contract has been signed with Cassie Benson and recorded an initial payment of $1,500 to begin development. Board members noted that Kehli Hazlett will provide photo assets and that the board needs to supply written content; Matt Stajcar requested that an email sign-up feature be included on the site.
On streetscape funding, the board approved a $5,000 allocation to Main Street Uptown Butte for street tree planning and implementation. The motion was made by Matt Stajcar, seconded by Cassie Wick, and approved by the board.
Other operational items included an update on snow removal procurement—neither of the two bidders accepted the offer, so the board will revisit the topic in the fall—and a decision to adopt QuickBooks for financial tracking, with Matt Stajcar and Jeff Riggs to coordinate system setup.
The board directed staff and contractors to move forward on website and social media work immediately and requested contract drafts and implementation timelines for future meetings.
