information on student projects at Frostville. Ms. Wenger added that the Metroparks and <br />political officials may be approached to provide letters of support. <br />City Identity and Branding Proiect <br />Ms. Wenger reported the City has signed a contract with Studio Graphique for a City branding <br />and identity project. This project began when it was discovered the gateway signs were in poor <br />condition and required replacement. Studio Graphique developed branding and signage for <br />University Circle, Shaker Square, and the Gordon Arts District, among others. The firm will <br />work with a steering committee that would include Landmarks Cornmission representation. One <br />public meeting will be held to discuss what residents identify with and like about the community. <br />An important goal of the project is to foster support, a sense of community, civic pride, <br />appreciation for our history, and vision for the future. Along with major and minor gateway <br />signage, new facility signage will also be considered as well as streetscape banners. Other future <br />possibilities include directional signs, newsletters, and other publications to make the City'.s <br />image more cohesive. The City will retain the City seal; it will not be retired or changed. <br />Mr. Thomas asked if this effort could include promotion of the City's bicentennial celebration, <br />which is five years away. Ms. Wenger agreed; about two years before the bicentennial a <br />committee can be formed to plan events and perhaps use the City identity and branding for the <br />commemoration. When that time comes Mr. Schumann would like to get other community <br />organizations involved. <br />COMMUNICATIONS <br />Revised Landmarks Commission Roster <br />Mr. Richner reported he no longer has a cell phone and requests the phone number removed <br />from the roster. <br />Cleveland Restoration Society Letter <br />OHS paid for the Landmarks Commission membership for 2009.
