Mural donation request tabled after artist absent; council notes timing concern
Summary
The council tabled a request for a donation to the Magnify Monroe mural because the applicant, Kathleen Schoemig, was not present; members said they appreciated the mural but were concerned the funding request came after the project was completed.
The donation request from the Magnify Monroe group—presented for council consideration July 28—was tabled after Kathleen Schoemig, the applicant, did not attend when the item was called.
Council members said they appreciated the quality of the mural project but expressed concern that the request for city funding was made after the mural had already been completed rather than prior to its start. The council voted to table the item "until a member of Magnify Monroe Group was in attendance." The motion was moved by Councilmember Perry Payne, seconded by Councilmember Jason Bagley, and passed unanimously (4-0).
