(KNZA)--Hiawatha Chamber and Visitors Bureau President Kate Miller meet with the Hiawatha City Commission Monday evening to review the proposed guidelines for the placement of fiberglass leaf statues around town.
Miller presented the idea earlier this year. While the commission was receptive, they requested that the Chamber come back with written guidelines for the statues, which will be purchased and designed by individuals and businesses.
Under the guidelines, statues would be placed no closer than 25 feet from corners, and no further forward than the nearest planter.
Designs will have to be approved by the Chamber and then either the City Commission or the City Administrator.
Statue owners will also be required to feature their leaves in the Halloween parade.
The commission was in consensus that the guidelines were acceptable.
