MINUTES
A meeting of the Westlake Public Art Committee was held Thursday, November 8th, at
10:00 a.m., in the Town's offices at Solana. Attendees were: Michelle Corson, Carol
Langdon, Shannon Larue, Mary Petty, and Mayor Scott Bradley. Absent were: Phyllis
McConnell and Tim Brittan.
Called the meeting to order.
2. Discussion of the Minutes ensued. Ms. Langdon mentioned that her name was
spelled wrong. A motion was made by Ms. Langdon, seconded by Ms. Larue that
the minutes from the August 3, 2007 meeting be approved and the motion carried
unanimously.
3. Ms. Petty presented a sample of the holiday ornament. The board agreed to a
price for the ornament of $20 with a total of 300 ordered. Ms. Corson reminded
the board that the Town has agreed to fund these ornaments, so the profit per
ornament will be 100%.
4. The board agreed to keep some level of exclusivity by not making any more
ornaments than 300. Ms. Petty offered to talk with last year's recipients of the 43
ornaments that were made to see if they will keep their place. Discussion ensued
about offering a discount to employees since they received their ornaments free
last year; however, it was agreed that the price would be set and charged to all
buyers of the ornaments.
5. Ms. Corson agreed to contact Maguire to see how many tenants they had and see
if they would like to purchase an ornament for the holiday baskets they give out
each year.
6. The following tasks were assigned:
Ms. Larue will work with her kids to create a logo for the PAC

will check on the cost of postage
