Landmark District Sign Votes

In October and November of 2025, we took votes from residents and our community to see what design they preferred. After tallying up the votes, the winning design was “A”. Thank you to all who participated in the process! We will be printing some test signs and then ordering them for the city to install for the next step.

A Sign Today, A Memory Forever - For families, this is a chance to help create something that will last for future generations — a landmark our kids can point to on bike rides and proudly say, “That’s our neighborhood!”
