New Business:
City Beautification has received a request from Dogwood Hills Garden Club for a service project to plant downtown planters that are empty. Dogwood Hills has contacted these businesses about doing this service project. Jean made a motion to approve $250 to the Dogwood Hills Garden Club for this service project. Sandy seconded the motion. The motion carried.
A request to beautify the corner of Glade & Apple street has been made this is on the corner of the New Albany Middle School. This is a heavy traffic area since the gym is used by the middle school and high school. Laura asks you to take a few minutes to look at this area. It will be discussed at our next meeting.
