VilleFest committee authorizes up to $2,000 for face painting and balloon activities
Summary
The subcommittee approved spending up to $2,000 to cover face painting and balloon-twister services (approximately $900 each estimated), authorizing staff to finalize contracts so services are secured before the July 31 vendor deadline.
Committee members reviewed competing quotes for face painting and balloon services and agreed to a combined, not-to-exceed budget to avoid returning for another vote.
"Ten bags at $60 would be $600" for premade balloons, and another vendor quoted $600 for six hours of face painting with a second painter for three peak hours (an extra $300), Lily Morgan said while outlining options. After discussion, a motion was made to authorize $900 for face painting and up to $900 for balloon twisting, with a combined cap of $2,000 to allow for fees and contingencies. The motion passed on a voice vote. Staff will confirm final numbers with the vendors and report back by email to the committee.
