The June 8, 2023 minutes record that a plaque by the arches said they should be yellow, that the board voted to keep them white so the LED lighting would stand out, and that the work group was H.R. Kelly, John Coffee, Beth Duke, Kashion Smith, Emily Koller, Kyle Schniederjan and Drew Brassfield. On July 13 Duke said a price would not be known until bids were received. [1][2]
