business in the City should be painted over or covered because
people that just move here or people that are visiting get
confused and think these stores are open. Mr. Spangler also said
that flowers should be planted in the medians and used State Road
40 leading into Ormond Beach as an example of how nice the
roadways can look. Mr. Seifert explained that the City has
applied for a grant from the State to beautify the medians and is
still waiting for a reply.

The Committee members discussed the possibility of a city-wide
beautification week, which could work in coordination with the
Public Works spring clean up. Ideas included a banner with the
Beautification slogan placed on it to be hung in a public
location, possibly painting CARE on the water tower, getting
teachers and elementary students involved, and encouraging the
citizens to become more involved with city clean up and
beautification. Mrs. Ver Way asked if the Committee was going to
do anything about the bumper stickers. Mr. Seifert suggested
designing the banner and the bumper stickers alike. The
