Commission requests formal quotes, timelines for downtown facade and awning grants
Summary
The commission reviewed two facade grant applications — one for Patriot Memorial (awning/painting) and one for Southern Collision & Restoration — and asked applicants to provide clean, dated contractor quotes and completion dates before the full board votes.
Commission members reviewed two grant applications aimed at storefront improvements on South 31 and near the high school corridor. One application was described as work for the Patriot Memorial (awning and painting) and another for Southern Collision & Restoration; members said both appear to meet program guidelines but raised concerns about the quality of the contractor estimate submitted.
Several members objected that the contractor estimate was handwritten and lacked a completion date. The board identified the applicant contact for the paint job as John Dickon and agreed to support the projects conditionally if the applicant submits a formal, dated quote and a timeline for completion before the commission convenes with a quorum. "We need a clean quote for the paint job, and we need a date when it will be completed," the Chair said.
