Woodstock approves $3,000 for beautification and seasonal decorations
Summary
Voters approved Article 6 to appropriate $3,000 for village beautification and seasonal decorations; trustees said funds are allocated by vote at trustees' meetings and have historically covered items such as Halloween candy and flowers.
The Village of Woodstock approved Article 6 to appropriate $3,000 for village beautification projects and seasonal decorations, to be spent at the trustees' discretion. Residents asked how the funds are allocated each year and whether the line item moves among organizations; trustees explained selections (for example, Halloween candy and flowers) are discussed and decided by trustees in a separate meeting.
Seaton McElroy, chair of the trustees, said historically about $700–$750 has been used for Halloween candy and that other allocations (flowers, winter lights) are determined annually. After limited discussion the article was put to voice vote and carried.
