FORT SCOTT — The back of 110 S. Main St. could someday have a herd of bison crossing it, with sunflowers softening the look of the utility panels.

Kathy Dancer, who chairs the city’s Historic Preservation & Resource Commission, described the idea Oct. 27 as the applicant seeking approval for new rear doors at her building. “We are talking about doing something that would be a bison mural probably, going, a herd of bison going across the back of the building with dimensional sunflowers popping out,” she said. She said the idea is a future request and that she didn’t bring a rendering.

Dancer handed the gavel to Peggy Cummings for the item. The commission approved the doors, windows and paint 4-0, and Dancer did not vote.

She asked for glass in the new doors so she can see into the alley. “We had a gentleman who lived back in that alley for in excess of six months at one point,” she said.
