4. OLD BUSINESS
..a.. Welcome to Kenai Sign
Chairman Sparks informed the Committee that she' has had no word
from Scott Kodysz as to the progress of the sign. Council Member
Swarner stated that the purchase order for the sign had been approved
at the last Council Meeting.
b. Banners
Chairman Sparks told the Committee that she had been having
second thoughts about the banners because of the strong winds the City
has been having. Several of the existing banners are hanging in
shreds and need to be taken down. Following a discussion on the
matter, a vote was unanimously carried to drop the banners from the
Beautification Budget and let the Bicentennial Visitors and
Convention Bureau purchase banners if they wanted to.
Discussion then followed as to the best way to utilize the banner
money so as to do the most good for the City. A motion was made by
Committee Member Jackson that the money be divided between more summer
flowers, concrete for the flagpole settings, and a new Christmas
decoration for the Leif Hansen Memorial Park. The motion was seconded
by Committee Member Sheldon and passed unanimously.
Director McGillivray will look into pricing information regarding
a lighted star for the Memorial Park and report back to the Committee.
5. 'NEW BUSINESS
a. Rotar~ Clu,b Bicentennial Project
Chairman Sparks informed the Committee that she had received a
call from Mark Winston of the Kenai Rotary Club. There is an area
behind Craycroft Chrysler that the Rotary Club would like to
landscape and turn into a small park for their Bicentennial project.
There is a small pond that they would like to make deeper and stock
with fish for children. It was questioned whether this would be a
continuing project of the Rotary Club or whether it would only be,for
the Bicentennial. Director McGillivray stated that there might be a
problem with Fish and Game as to the fish stocking.
The meeting was adjourned at 2-30 p.m.
