Bellevue DDA approves $7,086.64 purchase of eight industrial flowerpots for downtown
Summary
The Bellevue Downtown Development Authority approved a $7,086.64 purchase from Bellevue Hardware for eight industrial cement flowerpots to be installed downtown; volunteers and a local resident will help with planting and watering.
The Bellevue Downtown Development Authority (DDA) voted May 14 to purchase eight industrial cement flowerpots for downtown and to pay Bellevue Hardware $7,086.64 for the order. Chairperson C. Carpenter moved to approve the expenditure; M. Smith seconded and the motion carried.
The board said it will arrange logistics for filling and maintaining the pots. K. Sparks will contact Joan Wilson to ask whether she can help water and maintain the planters; C. Carpenter will reach out to Mr. Brininstool to recruit high‑school volunteers to help fill the pots with dirt and plants once they arrive. Jake (role not specified in the minutes) was noted as a contact to obtain filler, soil and plants for the pots.
The purchase was presented as a streetscape improvement intended to enhance downtown appearance during public events. No additional budget breakdown or funding source beyond the vendor payment was specified in the minutes. The board did not record a roll‑call vote tally; the minutes state only that the motion carried.
The DDA expects to coordinate installation and volunteer help once the order is delivered; no installation date was recorded in the meeting minutes.
