The Clarendon Economic Development Corporation hired an architect to lead the next steps of rehabilitating the Mulkey Theatre during a called meeting Monday night.
The CEDC Board approved a $5,900 proposal from Mason Rogers of Playa Design Studio in Amarillo for site investigation (measuring, documenting, and transferring to digital drawings) and the creation of schematic designs. Playa will also help facilitate developing a budget to move forward with the next phases of fundraising for the project.
Rogers said his work on the project would begin in three to four weeks.
In other CEDC business, the board listened to a proposal from Mayor Larry Hicks and City Administrator Lambert Little for the city and CEDC to work together to hire someone to head up tourism and economic development activities and provide assistance to the Chamber of Commerce. The board appointed Steve Hall to represent the CEDC in working with the city to pursue this goal.
