APPROVAL OF MINUTES—Moved to End of Meeting FACADE GRANT CONSIDERATIONS CONSIDERATION OF TWO FACADE GRANT APPLICATIONS: 1. Hammond—New Day Cafe— 102 Front Street John Hammond, 102 West Front Street has been in business 2 `/2 years at the subject location. Now that the business appears to be a great success, he is beginning to build up capital and would like to upgrade the building that has been described as drab and uninviting in YELP. He is hoping to create an exterior that reflects more of the type of food inside — exciting! He is anxious to make the store front more pleasing adding to a more inviting corner in the Downtown area. He is planning inviting green space underneath the proposed canopy. In response to Commissioner Morris, Mr. Hammond said that the existing vinyl lettering will be removed and replaced with signage more representative of the business atmosphere. Mr. Hammond further explained the painting effects. 2. Petersen -Necessities and Temptations—217 N. Laurel Edna Peterson, Necessities and Temptations, 216 N. Laurel said that this will be her 17`x' Christmas in the store. The awnings that will be replaced with the requested funding are so filthy and shredded that she can no longer clean them - they are falling apart.
