City Administrator Gary Jorn reported the Main Street Committee received A $2,500 donation from F & M Bank and had $2,300 in a Christmas Fund. The Richardson County Visitors Bureau has also pledged $10,000 toward the cost of the decorations, estimated to cost about $30,000.
With the City providing $6,600, the Main Street Committee has pledged $6,600.
