APPROV ALOF THE MINUTES No Minutes to be approved since the May 18, meeting was cancelled. 3 DISCUSS CONCEPT FOR AREA BEAUTIFICATION COMMISSION WOULD LIKE TO ADOPT ON BEDFORD-EULESS ROAD The Commission decided the area they choose to adopt and maintain should be an example for businesses, as well as, citizens. Plants will be used that are readily available and do well in this area, in hopes of getting area businesses and citizens to take more of an interest in their landscapes. 4. TOUR AREA TO BE ADOPTED Several members went on a tour of the "proposed" site on Bedford-Euless Road, as well as, a tour of other sites in North Richland Hills, to get an idea of how large a site they want to maintain, what plants will be used and help them to pin point the exact area in which to do the planting. A special workshop will be held Monday; June 21, 1999, to discuss further plans. 5. DISCUSS TIMELlNE FOR PROJECT The Commission decided the project should be completed as quickly as possible. After Debbie York, Glenn Nerwin and Patsy Tucker obtain Bill Thorton's approval, the Environmental Services Department will notify the lawn care company currently taking care of the area, that their services will no longer be required for the "adopted" area. Work will begin after that. A suggestion was made to post signs in the area, notifying citizens of the work being performed by the Beautification Commission. 6. STAFF REPORTS Debbie York handed out Financial Reports to each of the members, which shows the remaining balance and year-to-date expenditures for each account. Debbie also passed on a request from Sharon Davis to either repair or remove the bubble gum machine currently located at the Recreation Center. Patsy Tucker said she would find out the name of the contact person from Delores Pultz and get this matter resolved. Pam Burney reported next years "proposed" budget of $5336.00 has remained uncut. However, since the budget hearing process is not over and the budget has not been adopted, it could still be adjusted. 7.
