Sign language
Note: Bluffton council will begin meeting in person in the town hall in March.
One of Bluffton council’s focus in 2021 is village signage.
A report of council’s street, lights, alley and sidewalk committee offered several ideas for this year during council’s Feb. 22 meeting.
The focus includes:
• Begin a parking regulations sign replacement program with the aim to complete all streets, with a concentration in the area of the schools by the end of summer 2021.
• Begin a street name sign replacement program, with the aim to complete all areas east of Main by the end of fall 2021.
Looking at 2022:
• Complete the street name sign replacement program, with the aim to complete all areas west of Main by the fall of 2022.
• Complete a survey of regulatory and warning signs, with any needed replacements to be installed in the spring of 2023.
Looking at 2023:
Replace all mast, pole and cantilever-mounted signs on Main Street from College to Jefferson.
Council’s Feb. 22 packet is attached. A comprehensive committee report starting on page 12 includes future and past action by this committee.
