County clears use of courthouse square for May 2 art crawl
Summary
The committee granted permission for an art crawl called 'April Showers, Premier Flowers' on May 2 at the courthouse square after a request from Linda Gaines; the motion was made by Ms. Watkins, seconded by Ms. Hallmark, and approved by voice vote.
The Coffee County Capital Outlay Committee approved a request Feb. 5 to use the courthouse and courthouse square on May 2 for a community art crawl called "April Showers, Premier Flowers."
Linda Gaines (S3) told the committee the event is scheduled for the first Saturday when vendors are allowed on the square and that the program is organized through the parks and recreation division. "We wanna do an art crawl, May the 2nd," Gaines said, asking permission to use space around the courthouse for booths and displays.
Why it matters: the event is a public-facing community activity that will use county property and requires coordination for placement and permitting. The committee approved the request after a motion by Ms. Watkins and a second by Ms. Hallmark; Chair (S1) announced the motion approved by voice vote.
Logistics and follow-up: the Chair and staff asked organizers to provide a rendering or proposal showing benches, vendor placement and any changes to permanent fixtures before final installation of benches or other street furniture is approved. Linda Gaines and organizers were thanked and the committee closed discussion and approved the request.
What’s next: staff will expect a formal site plan or rendering from organizers to ensure any temporary or permanent changes match the square’s existing appearance and layout.
