Finance committee hears $75,000 tourism grant awarded for Desert Cow sign
Summary
City staff told the finance committee the town won a $75,000 "affordable tourism asset" grant tied to the Desert Cow south‑end sign; staff said project leads Abraham and Fred will return with implementation details and quotes.
City staff announced the town had been awarded an "affordable tourism asset" grant tied to the Desert Cow signage effort, saying, "We were awarded that grant, $75,000." The staff speaker said Abraham and Fred would work on the details and bring a plan back to the committee for review.
The award is intended to support the south‑end sign campaign that the Desert Cow promoter had been advancing with the city. Committee members asked that any vendor quotes, plaque costs and exact line‑item requests come forward with the packet so finance can review the budgetary impact before disbursing funds. City staff said implementation and procurement would follow the city's normal routing to the parks committee, finance and then council as required.
