Meeting Notes - Evening Zoom Meeting - June 10th

The team held a zoom meeting. This meeting reviewed what was heard and discussed at each of the discovery day events.

Homer has a number of areas that could be considered destinations.

The entry into town could benefit from a Homer sign at the city limits, and a DOT sign directing people to the overlook.
Better identification of the Chamber of Commerce as a visitor information location, and the addition of exterior information to assist people.
Addition of exterior information at the airport and in the vicinity of the air taxi services (and float base) to assist people.
Addition of exterior information at key locations on the spit where people arrive in Homer.
This exhibit is an inventory of existing directional signs on the Sterling Highway.
To help people be aware of the destination areas in town, directional signage should be improved, with the possible addition of gateway elements to help people understand where an area is as they drive through it or to it. Within these areas, there should be locations (secondary contact) where people can get more information on what there is to do and experience in these places.
