Council discusses temporary removal and relocation of City Hall flagpole
Summary
Council members discussed removing a flagpole at City Hall because flags were catching on the building; staff said they will cut the pole at about 4 feet and reattach a section to reinstall the pole at the front when weather permits.
During the open discussion period of the City Council meeting, a speaker identified as Chris said the flagpole beside City Hall would be temporarily removed because flags were catching on the building. "We are going to be removing the flagpole from out here by City Hall because the flags keep catching on the building, so we're gonna cut it off and move it to the front. So he knows there's no flagpole for a while. It's in concrete, so we're gonna cut it off at about 4 feet," Chris said. He added, "I have 4 welded back onto it, and now I'll replace it in front of them. So Alright. As weather permits. Yes. That's all I got."
Chief Buffalo acknowledged the plan on the record. The discussion indicates a planned temporary removal and later reinstallation of the pole at the front of City Hall when weather conditions allow; no formal motion or vote was recorded on this item during the meeting.
Council members did not record further debate or a formal directive on the minutes; the remarks were part of open discussion and described a planned maintenance action by staff. No timeline beyond "as weather permits" was provided on the record.
