Committee members agreed to procure five golden-sword yucca plants and to divide existing heuchera from a site damaged by a car, with planting scheduled for September. One speaker confirmed the specification: "We need 5" referring to the yucca plants, and members discussed delivery, staging and whether plants could be temporarily kept at a member's home before installation.

The group reviewed sourcing options (stone yards and local True Value), soil preparation (remove turf, supplement with topsoil/manure) and whether to use flat stone edging. Members also agreed to obtain price estimates and to check excavation/utility-clearance requirements before digging at the sign location.
