Gunter's Municipal Development District board has a packed special meeting set for Thursday evening, with a public relations proposal, an update on a downtown property purchase and a possible incentive for a pet grooming business all on the agenda.
The meeting starts at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 8, at the Gunter Public Safety Building, 105 N. Fourth St., according to the agenda posted Oct. 2 by City Secretary Detra Gaines. Residents may speak during citizen comments, with a three-minute limit.
Public relations proposal
Marc Rylander and Mary Ann Moon of GRPR are scheduled to present and discuss services they have proposed for the district. The agenda describes a scope of work covering public relations, government relations, strategic communications and public affairs. The item is listed as a presentation and discussion, not a vote.
Downtown property
The board will get an update on its purchase of 305 W. Main St. from Eric Wilhite. In September, the City Council had a Gunter Municipal Development District real estate purchase and sale agreement for that address on its Sept. 17 agenda.
Members will also discuss the new ownership of property at 101 S. Preston Road and a possible district project to help with site improvements there.
