Councilmember Steve Matney added that the Trace plan requires that a topographic survey be done, which would further increase the cost. The Trace plan included a “paved area,” but it was not clear if it would be flagstone, brick or asphalt. Mayor Beers asked Ms. Long if the town’s “regular landscaper” (Chapel Hill Landscaping) could be contacted to submit a proposal. There was also some discussion about the use of Centennial funds for the project The mayor asked Councilwoman Long to ask Trace Landscape Architects for an extension and to get two other formal bids. --Dave Chitwood Text Box: FREE HALL EVENTS FOR GLEN ECHO RESIDENTS The following activities booked at the town hall are free for town residents: Saturday, September 8,, 7:30 p.m.—GLEN ECHO FILM FESTIVAL Monday, September 10 , 8:00 p.m.--TOWN COUN CIL MEETING Tuesday, September 18, GYPSY MUSIC, World Music Folklife Center Every Wednesday, 8:00-10:30 p.m. English Country Dance.
