2010 Holiday Decorations

 

History

Bright Ideas has provided the installation, maintenance, takedown and storage of all village-owned holiday displays along Ravinia Avenue and at Centennial Park, for the last several years. In addition, Bright Ideas provides the animated lights on the trees along Fun Drive at no cost to the village. In 2009, Bright Ideas replaced all of the lighted snowflakes along LaGrange Road at no cost to the village.

 

This item was brought before the Community Events & Outreach Committee meeting tonight.

 

Financial Impact

 

Bright Ideas’ proposal for the 2010 holiday season is $24,937.00, the same cost as 2009 for installation, maintenance, takedown, and storage. Funds have been allocated in the 2010 budget.
