Despite being cut from the city budget this year, there will be flower baskets on Clintonvillle’s Main Street again this summer.
The Common Council on Tuesday approved a special account for donations to the program. Interim City Administrator Chuck Kell said the account funds will not count toward the city’s revenue cap.
Forty-five baskets are being ordered. Plans are to collect approximately $3,000 to pay for the flower baskets and for someone to water them.
Anyone wanting to make a donation can call 715-823-7605 or visit City Hall, 50 10th St., or contact Sue Aschliman at B&H Fashionwear, 52 S. Main St., or 715-823-5311.
“I have no doubt they will collect the money,” Common Council President Jeanne Schley said.
