• <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Mayor and Councilmembers <br /> FROM: Richard Buendorf <br /> ITEM: CITY ENTRANCE SIGN <br /> In a never-ending battle to upgrade the image of the City, the <br /> project of finding the best, most solid, City entrance sign was <br /> tasked to me. <br /> The idea was to find a contractor who could build a City entrance <br /> sign that would not only be, but appear to others, as stable. <br /> Both bids were within the cost budgeted, and both bids were based <br /> off of the sign blue print (see print) which was an aluminum <br /> reverse pan letters (which are sturdy and need little to no <br /> maintenance) which read "ST. ANTHONY VILLAGE" , cast in front of <br /> a brick wall 14 feet long by 8 feet high._ <br /> Building a sign composed of brick and aluminum lettering gives <br /> • the City and the people who drive through, a sense of stability. <br /> In time, this composition will allow the sign to appear new even <br /> though it may be old. <br /> BIDS LeRoy Sign Company Varner-Matt Signs <br /> Aluminum letters (installed) Aluminum letters (installed) <br /> brick (installed) and water brick (installed) and water <br /> coated coated <br /> Package Cost Package Cost <br /> $4,540.56 $5,712.00 <br /> For the City to put in an entrance sign of this .stature would <br /> give the City of St. Anthony the edge on many other surrounding <br /> cities. Remember, it's the little things that truly show achiev- <br /> ement. <br /> RB:cjk <br />
