The city council agreed to purchase 250 banners with the custom logo Mayor Dave Badeaux designed to celebrate the city’s 150th anniversary this year.
“We initially wanted to put 450 banners on our light poles across town,” City Administrator Jennifer Bergman told the council Monday, April 19, “but as you can see from the quotes in your packet, that got to be rather expensive.”
The original amount would have cost the city more than $20,000, so council members agreed to the 250, which will cost $12,800 to purchase at Minnesota Makerspace. Two other quotes from Minnesota T’s and Northern Lights Display were $20,000 and $18,438, respectively.
