Have you seen them? The Village of Webster has FINALLY installed new welcome signs on the approaches to the village.
I’ve known for a while that the Village Board has been working on replacing the worn-out signs. Their condition had been deteriorating for a long time, and they desperately needed a new coat of paint. They were, in short, a rather embarrassing representation of our village.
When I asked more a year ago about fixing them, I was told that some new ones were in the works. So I’m especially happy to see that they’ve finally been installed.
There are at least three of the handsome new signs that I know of: on East Main near Phillips, on South Ave. at the corner of Pontiac, and on West Main near Webster Nails & Spa.
Interestingly, it appears that the Powers That Be decided NOT to include the “Where Life is Worth Living” tagline.
And also, by the way, have you noticed that the white string lights snaking up the Village light poles have not been removed? They appear to be the same “candy cane” strings that were installed for Winter Wonderland, but the red part has been disabled, just leaving the white. They’re rather attractive and I think make the village sparkle and look especially charming at night.
Thank you, Village of Webster, for these new little touches, which help make the village more attractive than ever.
