Mr. Seifert agreed to get in touch with the Chamber and see what could be done. The Committee discussed possible sites for a beautification project and decided the Fire Station on U.S. 1 would be a good location. Mr. Loomis suggested a car wash would give the Committee some good publicity and keep the slogan in the public's mind and the money could be spent to landscape around the Fire Station. Mrs. Geiger moved to send a memo to the City Manager asking permission to proceed with a car wash with the proceeds going to a landscape project around the Fire Station.
