He stated the group moved their event to Rivers Edge Commons Park and requested the city provide a flag because there wasn't one in the park. There were not any funds in the city budget so the flag runners stepped up to raise the money. Mayor Dietz stated the city further proposed moving the current memorial located along Highway 10 to Lion John Weicht Park where it would have better visibility. He stated the Council is considering renaming the new fields to veteran's fields. He stated the flag would go in Lion John Weicht Park as part of the memorial display and the legion could hold their event at this location.
