American Legion Auxiliary gets council approval to replace Veterans Park benches; tree planting to be coordinated
Summary
Abby Mhaler of the American Legion Auxiliary told council the Auxiliary has memorial funds to replace three benches at the Veterans Park memorial; council approved replacement and asked the group to return with tree-planting plans and coordinate species and placement with Public Works Director Volk.
Abby Mhaler, representing the American Legion Auxiliary, addressed the council about replacing three memorial benches at Veterans Park and possibly planting trees. Mhaler said the Auxiliary has memorial funds available to cover bench replacement. The council approved replacement of the benches and asked the Auxiliary to return with a plan including the number and placement of trees; if trees are planted the Auxiliary will coordinate species and placement with Public Works Director Casey Volk (motion by Nancy Gens, second by Sarah McCabe; voting: Yes – All).
The record does not specify the number or species of trees to be planted; the council’s approval covers bench replacement now, with additional tree work contingent on a future plan and coordination with Public Works.
