In terms of marketing, four banners have been placed at distinct locations in town, informational flyers have also been placed at the Library, City Hall, on the website, in the city newsletter, and sent to the schools. We have several volunteers for the crud cruiser: four cub scouts and two to three council members. Other volunteer assignments include: one board member at the Shred Station, two additional members confirming residency at the crud cruiser, one member at the Electronic Station, and two members directing traffic. A few more volunteers would be helpful, please encourage other community members to assist. The Board should plan on meeting at 8:15 a.m. - 8:30 a.m. to set up the event including the barricades, traffic cones and signs. Staff will have donuts, coffee and water in the City Hall break room. Trunk or Treat - is the same day, October 22, starting at 5:00 p.m. The Board has committed to have a "Trunk", with candy (500 pieces) and Frankenstein. The grant from the State Forester's office fell through, so there will not be trees to distribute this year. Staff suggests distibution of brochures such as simple recycling and/or the monarch butterfly program. For logistic purposes, the Board should plan on meeting at the Library (location for the Trunks) at 4:30 p.m. Parking will be available in TownCenter or around City Hall. Arbor Day Celebration - Arbor Day is scheduled for Saturday, October 29th. Texas Tree Foundation will drop the tree at Patterson sometime the week of October 24-28th. Taylor with Texas Tree Foundation will contact the Principle of Patterson to coordinate the tree drop off. We will start the program at 9:15 a.m. after the fun run. The Mayor will be present to read the proclamation. The board will need to bring shovels as we did in previous years for students to place dirt around the tree. The actual tree planting will be at the back of the elementary school. The board should plan on arriving at Patterson about 8:45 a.m. The Board should decide if you are interested in maning a booth at the festival? IV. Recommendation: Approve V. Attachments: 1.

I. Subject: Discuss and approve action necessary to trim trees in front of TownCenter II. Originated by: Kelly Cooper, Director of Human Resources III. Summary: At the September City Council meeting a safety concern was raised by a resident regarding trees along the parkway in front of TownCenter which block the view. There are several Desert Willow canopies at the entrance/exit to Town Center that if raised could improve the view of oncoming traffic and make it somewhat safer. Is this a project that KKB would be willing to complete? If so, we should consider a date and board member availability to assist. IV. Recommendation: Approve V. Attachments:
