<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The Commission accepted a request from the American Legion to <br />place flags at the entrance into Lion's Park off of Jackson <br />Avenue. The flags would be on permanent poles and the American <br />Legion would like to have this project completed before <br />Memorial Day. The Legion will be responsible for most of the <br />work and expenses related to this project. The American Legion <br />traditionally uses Lion's Park as part of its Memorial Day <br />activities. <br /> <br />The Council should consider a motion supporting or approving <br />this project. <br /> <br />The Commission indicated that they would strongly support a <br />park at the EDA site if no building project materializes. The <br />Commission felt that this green space area would compliment the <br />downtown area very nicely and may turn into a very nice <br />permanent park environment for the long term benefit of the <br />community. A park in this area would certainly allow more <br />emphasis to be put on the Mississippi River. <br />
