STREET SIGNS RECOMMENDATION The Public Works Department, Washington County Sheriffs Office, Hugo FD, and Community Development developed new City street sign specifications to insure uniform street signage throughout the City.

Miron made motion, Petryk seconded, to approve the new street sign specifications as presented. All aye. Motion Carried.
