• Chair MacDonald asked members to email him if there is an item they would like added
to a future agenda.
• Discuss and consider 25011 Logo and Slogan Submissions: Chair MacDonald projected
the submissions for all to see. He suggested we vote with a blind ballot or show of
hands. It was suggested that the artist might work with the Committee if there are parts
of the artwork or language that the Committee would like to revise. Ms. Griffin asked
the Committee to consider how they see the logo being used'=- as advertising, social
media, website, medallions, banners. Each logo was presented and members discussed
the attributes of each. There did not appear to be agreement, so two members
suggested that there was time to request additional submissions. The Committee
moved forward with the artwork that was already submitted and came to the consensus
that Mr. Andrews would do renderings of a logo that will incorporate aspects of the
ones under consideration.
• Vote is tabled until the next meeting.
• Discussion of the LLC Lightbox application. Ms. Griffin explained that the 250th
Celebration Committee will make a selection of art for the Lightbox and present the
choice to the Downtown Committee who will then apply to the Select Board for

approval. Ms. Griffin delivered a message from Town Manager Dumas: He believes the
sample is an excellent idea and would like to develop the concept (a photo of what used
to be allocated at the identical spot as it is now) into something more permanent., Mr.
McNatt said that he and Andy Todesco had walked the North, South, and East Commons
and the Historical Society will develop the concept for those areas. It was suggested that
the sample panel shown may be too busy for the Lightbox. Ms. Griffin said that Mr.
Dumas will provide financial support for the panels.
