DOA?

The Official Unofficial Minutes of WL BOA
Sept 3

Tonight @ 6PM, a Special Board Meeting will take place, Topic...EAG Committee Decision.  Apparently, the Committee or at least the Executive portion of the Committee met Tuesday morning.  The meeting was not posted on the Web site, I am assuming it was properly posted on the bulletin board @ City Hall.

Jerry mentioned the EAG wants to move forward and spend $3,000 to $4,000 to build a mock pilon, similar to the previous one built @ City Hall.  Apparently there is a different method that will be less expensive, but have the same appearance as the new monuments (?).  Jerry will be asking the alderman this evening to authorize the expenditure of the money.

Fund raising (Bos/Surma) continues to be stagnant, with only one of the outstanding pledges being contacted in the last three months...not exactly what one would call aggressive.  The whole project lost steam some time ago, and the appetite for the EAG to complete the project has been lost.

Did they bite off more than they could chew?  Take a look at the old monument @  Kerns by the dam ( and the lack of even basic weed trimming), that might be the answer.
