Entry sign landscaping completed!

Our next meeting will be Tuesday, September 15, at 6 p.m. in City Hall. ALL ARE WELCOME to sit in on the meeting.

Yesterday the OBC finished up landscaping around the entry signs. They really look good!  The total cost for the entry sign landscaping will be $3789.43 and the sign committee’s responsibility will be $2760.00, which can be covered from the OBC funds.  Funding included a $1028.60 grant from Iowa's Living Roadways. (Photo shows the entry sign at the west edge of town.)

We have applied for a REAP grant and will hopefully get it so we can start on the Memorial Walk project (continuing the sidewalk from Memorial Walk Park east to the triangle park between 1st and 3rd streets).

The Highway 175 Triangle Park historic plaque has been ordered and hopefully will be here next week. Hemer Plumbing & Heating may be interested in having a mural painted on the north side of their building downtown.  We have a lot of good ideas and we have a great group of people to work with!
