Commission discusses $26,000 estimate for village signage and next steps
Summary
EDC reviewed a Seherr‑Thoss signage plan with an estimated $26,000 cost for Litchfield signs; commissioners agreed to seek DOT permitting, consult the Historical Society and obtain three bids before selecting locations.
At the April 29 meeting the commission received an update on a signage project described in the minutes as the 'Seherr‑Thoss update,' which included a notated estimate of $26,000 for Litchfield signs. The minutes describe a proposed design direction—'Tapping Reeve Meadow'—characterized as colonial and wrought iron, and noted intent to create signs that tie the boroughs together thematically (Nature, Shops, Dining, Arts, Culture).
Commissioners directed staff to pursue necessary permitting, including Department of Transportation approvals, and to contact Jessica at the Historical Society to determine who originally designed existing signs. The commission agreed to solicit three bids, preferably from local contractors, to establish project costs and production quantities before deciding on specific locations. No final contract or funding award was recorded at this meeting.
