The power of a few well placed dollars is beginning to show up in downtown. Several businesses are taking advantage of the grant/loan project to improve the look of downtown.
Citizens National Bank and the City of Concordia partnered earlier this year to improve the looks of downtown by fall fest (third week in September). The progress to date has been awesome!
The latest improvement has been Coppoc Sports with their new awning going up today.
Tom’s Music House awaits a porch to go above the store windows. There is new paint on the Thrift Shop and the second hand shop next door. Hart to Heart is getting new windows. After all the work is done, I will post the before and after pictures
All the new paint and window works is having a great impact on how we look to others.
There are several business owners that are still in process of improving their buildings.
Seeing what is happening makes you proud of your town, doesn’t it?

Shocking color choice for the awning, it will take me awhile to adjust to it. BUT-----it draws attention to the downtown area. Concordia should be proud that they have such a peaceful downtown. It seems to always be a safe place to shop.
Larry: I am looking for a valid site for CloudCorp as I wanted to email Kirk a copy of coffee time with Rep. Moran this week. However all the information on the google websites has a lot of empty time on the websites with no email address for CloudCorp.
I did notice that Dana Brewer has gone in with the Wichita faction to help put the ethanol plant into being along with the appointment of Lowell Thoman to the CloudCorp Board at the Board of Trustees Meeting of the home of the Thunderbirds. In legal lingo, just how is home defined pertaining to the overall use of the Thunderbird logo?
And I know you have been attending the City Council meetings regularly as that is in your JOB DESCRIPTION to date anyway.

Attending City Commission meetings is an important part of the City Manager's job.
