JAN 5 4983 wK 52 fruE552 <br />Mr. Waddell informed the Board that his group would <br />like to put up the signs proposed at their expense on the <br />major arteries coming into town. He noted that the City <br />already has agreed to put these signs in their parks and on <br />the dumpsters, etc; and will make the signs for them. They <br />also have the cooperation of the School Board. As far as <br />the County is concerned, Mr. Waddell believed it would only <br />involve roadway signs and probably no more than half a dozen <br />or so. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Lyons, to auth- <br />orize Publc Works Director Davis to work <br />with the group i4r. Waddell represents to <br />assist in any way we can in determining <br />locations for the proposed signs, the total <br />cost of which are to be born by the Inde- <br />pendent Insurance Agents, and also to adopt <br />the proposed Proclamation. <br />Administrator Wright agreed that this is an extremely <br />good project, but noted that the proposed sign also <br />advertises the insurance group and these signs are going on <br />the right-of-way, which he felt could present problems and <br />set a precedent. <br />Discussion ensued on the fact that the Board did not <br />feel the primary intent is advertising or that we are <br />encouraging advertising. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. <br />It was voted on and carried unanimously. <br />Chairman Bird read the following Proclamation aloud and <br />presented it to Mr. Waddell. <br />72 <br />
