Committee pushes banner design and funding question back to Economic Growth & Development
Summary
Members reviewed vendor pricing and materials for proposed street banners, noted a vendor quote of $1,300 for 31 banners, and recommended the Economic Growth & Development committee select a design and earmark funds; staff said no formal motion was taken at this meeting.
Committee members and staff reviewed material samples and vendor pricing for town street banners and discussed which fund should pay for the purchase (street fund versus street‑lighting fund).
A staff member clarified the vendor quote: "$1,300 for 31 banners," and committee members discussed whether the sample material and the vendor estimate made it more appropriate to use the street fund. Staff said the banner request was sent from the Economic Growth & Development committee and that that committee has had difficulty finding funding for the project.
Staff recommended returning the packet to Economic Growth & Development so that committee can choose a design and identify a funding source before procurement. Although staff said a motion could be made to "kick it back" to Economic Growth & Development, the transcript records that the item was marked informational at this meeting and no formal vote or procurement decision occurred.
