TITLE:  Wayfinding Sign Presentation 
Subject

Glen Swantak, the urban renewal district's wayfinding sign consultant will present two alternatives on sign design.

Summary and Background

In 2019, the city and urban renewal agency entered into a contract with Merje Environments and Experiences of West Chester, PA to provide design services for wayfinding signage design and planning.  After a series of meetings with the project steering committee and stakeholder groups, a preliminary set of design alternatives was prepared.  The steering committee has narrowed down the design alternatives to two recommended designs.  The team is asking the city council to provide feedback and direction on the final two alternatives and help narrow the design to one preferred alternative.

 

Glen Swantak from Merje will join the meeting via teleconference to discuss the process and designs with the city council.
