Summary

A request from the library to attach a temporary banner to the new town sign prompted discussion; the board favored placing the banner on stakes to face the road rather than nailing it to the sign posts.

The board considered a library request to attach a temporary banner to the town's new sign and discussed alternatives to avoid damaging the sign posts.

Clerk Laurie explained the banner has grommets and could be nailed to the sign posts, but several board members urged a temporary ground‑stake solution so the banner would face the road without putting nails in the sign. One board member suggested driving stakes and situating the banner in front of the sign so it remains visible but removable without harm to the post.

The board favored the stake option and directed staff to proceed with that approach if the library agrees; no formal vote was required.
