BUSINESS: The special meeting was called to review 4 applications for Fagade Improvements for
the 2018 — 2019 fiscal year. The four applications were discussed in length.
VFW application — It appears as though a majority of the work on the side facade has already been
completed. The board would like to know if the intent is to continue with the corrugated metal on the
front of the building replacing the stone. Additionally are the wooden posts and lamp post going to be
installed as represented on the plans and application. The board approved a $2000 grant
conditionally upon the answers to the above questions and new estimates showing the costs of only
the work remaining on the 1st Ave. W. side.
BIAS Brewing —Grant application approved and a $3,000 grant awarded.
Highline Design —Formal estimates are missing from the application and must be submitted. The
estimates will need to be submitted for only the front of the building facing 2nd St. W. The application
requested funds for the sides and the back of the building and the board did not approve the grant for
the sides or back of the building. The board approved a $3000 grant conditional upon the receipt of
the estimates as requested.
Pam James of 124 Main Street —The application is missing formal estimates that must be
submitted. The board also has concerns about the building not being occupied and awarded a $3000
grant with the assumption that the property will be leased and not left vacant and the receipt of the
formal estimates.
A motion to approve the 4 applications and the grant amounts as indicated above was made by
Karen Sanderson with a second by Maggie. The motion passed unanimously. Total amount
approved during this round of reviews is $11,000 with a total budget available of $15,000.
ADJOURN: Motion to adjourn the meeting at 10:00 AM by Marshall Noice with a second from Debbie
Snyder. The motion passed unanimously.
