• Update regarding maintenance and future plans for Industrial Park: Kanita Larkins reports that the signs she ordered from Got Signs in Anna, Texas for the three lots at Industrial Park have come in and invited the board members to look at the finished signs. Kanita Larkins informed the board members that it appears that the entrance sign to the Industrial Park had been hit and most of the sign was knocked over and destoyed. She has contacted a bricklayer, Jack Crockett, and he provided an estimate of $1,200.00 to repair the sign and carry off the broken concrete. Kaaren Teuber inquired if there were other options for the entrance sign that are available. This matter will be tabled to explore other types of entrance signs. Additionally, the electric lights had also been damaged and Grayson-Collin Electric Co-Op checked the sight to determine that the wires were dead and therefore not a safety risk. They also determined that the meter had been removed and would need to be replaced. Kanita Larkins is in the process of obtaining estimates and has received one from Brothers Electrical Services in the amount of $930.00. She will obtain two more estimates.

She was provided a kiosk and was set up outside under a pergola at the entrance of the Food and Fiber Pavilion’s Wine Garden. She had the opportunity to provide information to the persons visiting this section of the State Fair. She estimates she gave out approximately twenty-five (25) packets. As the space was free, it was worth the time and effort to get the information out that Van Alstyne is a certified Retire in Texas community.
