Frates discussed incorporating banners to the street poles next winter and noted:
• The banners would complement the pole lights and provide color during
the winter.
• He recommended standardizing the lighted poles and banners to provide
more continuity, as opposed to pole decorations of different shapes and sizes.
A review of banner designs, etc. included in the packet took place and a brief
discussion followed. The design suggested by the Committee was a purple banner with
