Peru approves $5,200 purchase for disc‑golf course signage to improve visibility and safety
Summary
The board approved purchasing signage for the disc‑golf course from Signs and More for $5,200, citing park budget availability and safety concerns about visibility from Route 22; members discussed DOT signage and sponsorship options for ongoing costs.
The Town of Peru board returned a previously tabled resolution and approved the purchase of signage for the disc‑golf course. Clerk read that two bids were received and that the low bid from Signs and More was submitted at $5,200.
Members discussed funding from the parks budget, the need to improve visibility of the park entrance from Route 22 and a suggestion to contact DOT about a "hidden drive ahead" sign. One member said they hope to offset future costs with sponsorships and to have businesses sponsor holes. After discussion the board held a roll call; members answered in the affirmative and the purchase was approved.
The signage is intended to make the park driveway more visible to drivers and reduce near‑misses reported by staff who observed poor sight lines at the entrance.
