Council hears about community cleanup, tourism initiative and new local business introduction
Summary
Councilors reported a successful community garbage cleanup attended by roughly 75–80 people, a tourism initiative with QR-code check-ins and a $10,000 prize pool, and a new local business manager introduced himself after the meeting.
Councilors updated the meeting on a successful community cleanup, a forming tourism initiative and a late meeting introduction from a new local business manager.
Tammy reported the community garbage cleanup drew about 75–80 participants and thanked volunteers and donors who provided dumpsters; she said the council plans to hold cleanup events twice a year. "There was 75 to 80 people that brought us their trash," Tammy said. Amy reported a tourism initiative involving QR-code check-ins across participating venues, which started with a $5,000 prize that was matched in the meeting to create a roughly $10,000 prize pool; staff are forming a work group and will provide more details later.
After the adjournment motion was on the table, Les Comer introduced himself to the council as manager of the Roadhouse, which opened a few weeks earlier, and offered the business as a community partner for events. "We just opened up a few weeks ago... If we can partner up with you in any way, we're happy to do it," Comer said to the council.
