4. PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD
a. Laura Measles - Chamber Awards
Laura Measles said last summer the Chamber and Beautification Committee
discussed judging the entire city for Beautification Awards. The judging would take a
week and Beautification Members would do the judging. The Chamber would like to
try this for 1995. Measles suggested the first week in August for the contest, as beds
should be well established by that time. There would be prizes for residential and
commercial: .First place would receive a tree, second place a $35 gift certificate, and
honorable mention a $25 gift certificate for Chamber member nurseries,
The Chamber budget is $100 for the contest.

Bob Frates suggested the City donate trees for first place from the extension plot.
The Committee agreed and felt perhaps a plaque could also be given to first place, or
a nice framed picture of the winning flower beds.
Laura Measles said she had a form to use for judging. She would also do a press
release explaining the contest, the dates July 31 through August 6, and send a letter
to the City regarding their part in the judging, etc. The contest will be sponsored by
the City and the Chamber.

7. NEW BUSINESS
a. Garden Tour/Pamphlet
Carried forward to next agenda.
8. QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS
Barb Nord recommended the City use tarp to help control the weed problem in the
flower beds.
Bob Frates said some beds will have tarp for weed control. But due to summer crews
not having a lot of extra time, and lack of funds, not all beds can have tarp.
9. ADJOURNMENT
The next meeting will be July 11th. There being no further business the meeting was
adjourned at approximately 6:25 p.m.
