GC Council discusses new welcome signs

GRUNDY CENTER - In an effort to welcome visitors and highlight the town, the Grundy Center City Council is currently looking into purchasing new welcome signs, which would be installed on the north, east and west sides of town to greet those coming into Grundy Center.
 
Last spring, the council voted to remove the aging, wooden signs that were previously located on the north and east edges of town while looking into replacing them with more modern, updated signs.
 
During their meeting last week, City Clerk Kristy Sawyer presented some possible options and prices to the council. The prices for each sign ranged from $20,000 to $40,000 each. Higher end options would include an electronic message board, with additional options such as landscaping and lighting.
