Downtown Dover Partnership Design Committee Meeting 10/12/2022 Meeting Notes Present: Carrie, Elena, Dawn, Laura, Tina, Kim, Roger Carrie motion to approve. Dawn second, all ayes. Art League update from Elena- She recently joined the Art League's board and is helping get their programming up and running. They held a grand reopening event and raised $15,000. They are currently opened for programming and their website is up and running too. They collaborated with DDP with the paint dover event and Elena hopes for more consistent partnership in the future. Going forward, Elena will need to abstain from voting on art league projects. Please suggest any partnership ops and funding ideas. Carrie congratulated Elena on the opening event. Banners- Diane and Tina put it out into the universe at the paint dover event. They want to incorporate the paint dover event into the banners of historic places. DSU downtown was incorporated this year with a special category. They are trying to have committee look at some of the paintings and have them incorporated into the background, text TDB. Input from the company working on master plan- wayfinding and banner placements, want to place text sideways. Benches are included in the master plan placements. Master plan goal to cultivate and utilize the arts. "Creative district." Dawn says there used to be a gallery online? Tina says they should be up today. DSU homecoming is on the 29th and it is a challenge to get some banners up in time! Elena asks about the arms- always seems to be the problem? Tina clarifies that the sideways text banners are not a different size. Carrie wants to clarify that we will not be using Laura's? Tina says no, too hard to incorporate so many things that we wanted to do. Elena asks about the holiday banners and if we need to replace. Tina says that we can use the old ones again this year Roger needs to trim holly trees, wants to wait to put up lights. He isn't sure if wreaths and garland wait or move up the schedule? Tina needs to work with Antonio's schedule to see. Winter one’s next year? asks Carrie. Tina says she likes Laura's look for that one. Elena says maybe use Laura's holiday banners, but too late for this year. Aim for spring for new banners, then switch to holiday. Revisit next month for holiday, and approve plein air banners next month as well, if Diane is ready with the options at that time. Carrie asked about window judging. Tina says that Jordan will have an update next month on that. Carrie asked if sponsored benches was an option? Tina says would have to keep it open to everyone- want to you want to see? or keep branding on benches. Several people chime in to confirm that benches are very important to our community. Tina wants to spell street names in brick like in Orlando. Light columns are included in the wayfinding in master plans.

Grant request- Diane got the grant she had applied to, and we got $1.275m for property upgrades!! This money is for "lifesaving" changes- ADA compliance, sprinklers, elevators, bathrooms, and commercial kitchens to bring standards up to code and in line with standards on the highway. If there is money left, it will go to extra fagade projects. Dawn asks there will be an application process? Tina explains that property owners have already committed to 25-30% of match and they are working with a committee to get that in order. If there is a fagade grant, it will go through regular process (ours), but will have access to more than 50% match. 75-80% instead. Masterplan update- Mosaic is in the final stages of the master plan. They are leading small group presentations with legislators and revealing parts of it. Sometime in November, they will share the final plan to the community. new business- Dawn asks if we are the host for holiday dec contest? Diane is trying to make sure that happens ... maybe we need a theme next month. Tina hasn't heard if the holiday celebration has a theme yet. Dawn says they have a date for the tree lighting (12/1, parade 12/9) Roger doesn't know a theme yet. no members of the public present meeting adjourned Laura Parks
