As per our discussion, I compiled notes from the block meeting held on Monday, February 26, 2024, as you were out of town. Below are the key points discussed: 
1. Signs are being prepared to inform the public that businesses remain open and accessible via the street. This arose due to the current construction signs blocking the street, instructing people to check in at a non-existent 'construction office.' 2. KMHT offered to promote the open status of businesses during the construction phase. I proposed that they specifically mention the affected businesses to provide them with targeted additional advertising support. 
3. Lighting options for businesses operating after dark were deliberated upon. 4. Points of contact were identified, with Carl serving as the primary contact, employed by Casey Sloan. It was noted that Casey Sloan reports to Eric Powell. 
5. Delays were attributed to 'Unique Issues': 
a) A city council review was scheduled for March 7th, 2024, for approval to replace storm drains on the west side of the street, which were not initially planned. 
b) “305 Brick veneer laid on top of sidewalks vs. footings, brick collapsed when sidewalk was removed.” 
i. Eric Powell advised they were obtaining an Engineer to 
provide plans for the correct repair method and then providing those plans to the CTR to obtain a price to have the repairs completed. 
6. The owner of Paramount Theater reported damage to their sign caused by the construction crews."
