Board weighs historic-style signage for Riverside’s trolley shelters
Summary
Staff presented interpretive signage proposals for two surviving Tunerville Trolley shelters; trustees favored laser-engraved wood or the Riverside train-station–style sign for historic fit and longevity and asked staff to consult the museum and return with markups.
Manager Jessica Francis and Director Siren presented proposed interpretive signage for two surviving Tunerville Trolley shelters, including a narrative, photographs and a map of the historic line. Staff described options such as a picture, map and narrative panel plus choices for branding: the village logo, laser-engraved wood or a bronze plaque. Trustee comments favored a laser-engraved wood sign or a sign matching the Riverside train-station 'Riverside' sign for a vintage, durable appearance.
Trustees asked staff to consult the museum about the proposed trolley map (questions about numbered photo locations) and to produce markups for wood etching and a lower-cost aluminum option for comparison. Staff said they will return with sign markups and clarification on the map, and proceed with renovations and signage once the board provides final guidance.
