Downtown Revitalization Team
earns approval for banners
Siuslaw News
After months of work, the
Florence Area Chamber of
Commerce
Downtown
Revitalization Team (DRT)
presented the Florence City
Council its proposal to add
banners along main thorough-
fares into the city. These ban-
ners would add curb appeal to
make key locations more
attractive to passing motorists.
Councilors Joshua Greene
and George Lyddon moved
and seconded the motion, and
it passed unanimously.
Kelli Weese, city recorder,
said, “The proposed banner
design is of this wonderful
heron on a seaside backdrop.”
One of three phrases will be
included in the design of the
banners: “Come See What We
See,” “Historic Old Town” and
“Mainstreet District.”
The banners will be 20 inch-
es wide, 96 inches tall and
hang 10 feet above the side-
walks.
They will be made of
durable canvas, as researched
by the DRT.
“This is specification that
I’ve used previously … this is
the exact same specification I
ordered back in 2005, and they
are still in use and doing quite
well. The canvas in still in use
and doing quite well. The can-
vas lasts much longer than any
other type. They are used on
both coasts and in many differ-
ent cities,” said DRT member
David Wiegan.
“You’ve done a great job.
It’s a great project and it brings
that curb appeal to us, which is
important,” Greene said to the
DRT.
When the project begins in
the spring or summer of this
year, the banners will be
placed in strategic places.
Weese said, “These are pro-
posed to be on the very tall
poles along the highway,
which have streetlights. …
They are going to be very
high, which is important
because they’re trying to get
(the attention of) drivers, as
opposed to pedestrians.”
The 21 banners will range
along Highway 126, from
Quince Street to the intersec-
tion of Highway 101, and
along Highway 101, from the
intersection with Highway 26
to the southern end of the
Siuslaw River Bridge.
There also will be banners
in the gateways to Old Town.
Wiegan said, “We would
like to think this is just the
beginning of a number of
different aspects to deal with
aesthetics, along Highway 101
in particular. We have a num-
ber of other things in mind for
the future. We have to get
started.”
Mayor Joe Henry respond-
ed, “This is a good step for-
ward.”
