5. Old Business
a. Person First Festival – Coon
Jeff Coon gave a quick overview of the Person First Festival. He noted
that beginning in 2016, the PFF is looking at Old Town Square as a
potential venue. The square will be undergoing renovations beginning
early 2015 and while the work may not be done for September 2015, it
would certainly be the prime location after everything is completed.
He also noted that vendor feedback was overall positive, although some
noted that they weren’t capturing a new audience. The committee is
brainstorming ways to improve that aspect of the festival and are looking
forward to 2015.
b. Mayor’s Awards Summary – Hueber
Hettie Hueber recapped the Mayor’s Awards and presented some
improvements for next year.
c. COD Work Plan – Cozzens
The Board decided to review the alignment documents that Christine
Macrina provided and dig into the work plan at December’s meeting.
