Sperry Design Inc. has been awarded the proposal for the Town's Riverfront Renaissance Interpretive Panel Project at a cost of almost 4 thousand dollars per panel. Council endorsed the proposal even though it was not the lowest price submitted . Councillor David Mitchell voted against the proposal saying the cost issue should be looked at as well as the scoring criteria. Six companies responded to the call for proposals with prices ranging from 17 to 58 thousand dollars for the design, production and installation of up to 14 interpretive panels.
The approved budget by Town Council for the project with the inclusion of a separate mural is 90 thousand dollars.
