Summary

Board reviewed requests to extend Food Truck Friday into December, proposed a movie-night budget using tourism funds (~$1,000), scheduled a citywide cleanup for Sept. 19, and heard a Davis Road bridge construction update reporting on-site materials and steady progress.

Board members discussed community events and small operations items, including requests to extend Food Truck Friday later into the year and to use tourism funds to cover movie-night expenses (staff estimated about $1,000). The board proposed a tree-lighting and a 'parade of trees' concept for the holiday season and requested formal quotes to put event spending on the agenda.

Separately, staff updated the board on the Davis Road bridge construction, reporting that materials are onsite and that crews had addressed a water issue; staff said the project is on schedule and could finish ahead of the current timeline if progress continues. The board approved volunteer coordination for a citywide cleanup day, with plans for T-shirts, grabbers and supplies for participants.
