Summary

Consultants from Stantec presented a 'kit of parts' signage package for parks and a new trail corridor, recommending durable materials, railroad-inspired elements, and pedestrian and vehicular sign types; the committee welcomed the concepts and asked staff to request manufacture specifications.

Consultants from Stantec presented wayfinding and park-signage concepts that draw on Clovis' railroad and cultural history and recommended a flexible "kit of parts" to deploy across parks and the proposed trail corridor.

Trent Doolittle (project manager) introduced the team and Shannon Jones and Jeff Weber walked the committee through proposed sign types: vertical monument signs using railroad-rail profiles, horizontal ID signs, vehicular directional signage, pedestrian directionals, trail markers, etched-in sidewalk treatments and trail maps. Weber described the proposed family of signs and how they could be scaled across locations; Jones noted durable materials such as Corten steel and powder-coated metal for color elements.

Committee members praised the proposals and emphasized context-specific placement. The Chair and staff agreed no formal vote was needed tonight; Stantec will detail the concepts into specifications that can be taken to manufacturers.
