Committee members discussed the condition and replacement cost of downtown holiday wreaths and a pending waiver related to installed holiday lights.
Denise (role/title not specified) told the group that 12 wreaths that hang on light poles are damaged and likely need replacement. Denise said she is trying to locate procurement records and planned to call a contact named Scott for details. Committee members were given an estimated price range of $500 to $800 per wreath.
Separately, members mentioned a waiver for installment holiday lights; when asked, Denise said she had not yet followed up with the city legal office about the waiver and that staff would seek legal guidance before finalizing any agreement. Committee members discussed whether to send agreements only when requested and agreed staff should proceed after legal review.
No formal vote was recorded on wreath replacement or the waiver; members treated these as administrative items and asked staff to obtain procurement information and legal counsel.
