The town of Davidson has begun installing new signs and banners around town bearing the new town logo adopted earlier this year. This week, the empty sign holder in front of Town Hall got its sign back.
The signs on Main Street, South Main Street, and the Exit 30 area, are among a variety of new marketing materials that town officials are rolling out, including parking and town “wayfinding” signs. Also coming in the next couple of weeks: A new town website for visitors and a town-sponsored calendar site.
The new town logo and signage were developed with the help of consulting firm Arnett Muldrow & Associates of Greenville, S.C., and Davidson-based Bizzell Design Inc.

MI-Connection added customers in all three of its businesses during the first quarter of the fiscal year – internet, telephone and even cable TV, where the company has been losing customers.

MI-Connection officials also said at their monthly board meeting Thursday that negotiations to take over more of the system’s operations from outside operator Bristol Virginia Utilities (BVU) are likely to be completed by early November. The towns of Mooresville and Davidson, which own the system, had previously hoped to take over most functions by July 1. Read the full story
