Council discusses veteran and school banners, bracket costs and contract timing
Summary
Councilors reviewed timing and costs for veteran banners and banner brackets, noting some banners remain from Memorial Day through Labor Day and that bracket costs have risen; staff will review contracts and identify whether additional brackets can be added without new poles.
Clerk (S1) and commissioners raised concerns about overlapping banner displays and the cost and availability of mounting brackets. Clerk (S1) said the balance for brackets "went up this year to a $105," and reminded members that banners typically stay up through Nov. 11 when veteran displays conclude.
Members discussed whether existing brackets could be expanded (for example by adding additional mounting points) rather than installing new poles, and whether the town or county owns particular poles and brackets. Chair (S2) and Commissioner (S3) said they will review the contract to determine whether changes are possible and whether costs would fall to the town; no contract changes were authorized at the meeting.
