Recycled bicycles cleverly painted and decorated by local artists
- Increased availability of downtown parking by highlighting available parking at the Upper Valley Street Lot (the lot has now been re-lined)
- added free all-day business parking along the hedgerow at People’s Bank Parking Lot by shifting four hours to eight-hour parking on Mineral and Factory Streets.
- Asked for art by kids to be put at the Bus Stop
- This cause was taken up by Bus Start, a group that makes sure the Bus "Start" continues to have a rotating grouping of kids' art
