 to get a contractor out to identify the source. There was a temporary

 antennas.

 purpose is to increase awareness of the Riverwalk 2031 Master Plan and

 appear on the Riverwalk web page and communications have been sent to

E. NEW BUSINESS:

 1. Request of Operation Welcome You Home to install a non-standard bench on
 the Riverwalk - Bill Novack

 Request of Operation Welcome You Home to install a non-standard bench on the
 Riverwalk
 Attachments: Overview of Operation Welcome You Home
 Photo of Proposed Bench
 Specifications of Proposed Bench

 Novack provided an overview of Operation Welcome You Home (OWYH),
 a volunteer, Illinois-based organization that has been recognizing
 individuals returning home from military deployment since 2007. Donna
 Morsovillo, Founder and President of OWYH, is requesting to install an
 eight-foot bench on the Riverwalk that honors our service members and all
 branches of the military. Ms. Morsovillo provided further information on her
 background and the organization. She noted that a six-foot bench could be
 ordered instead, changing the logo positioning to fit. The color could also
 be changed. She selected this type bench because it is virtually
 zero-maintenance and the desired location on the Riverwalk would be next
 to existing memorials such as Veterans Plaza.

 Discussion followed on the location, existing space, maintenance,
 branding/style and the comments shared from resident Marilyn Schweitzer,
 who expressed concern with this being a non-standard bench for the
 Riverwalk. Ms. Schweitzer also provided suggestions for other locations to
 consider such as Veterans Park, Central Park or Burlington Square Park.
 Ms. Morsovillo expressed openness in having the bench installed at
 Veterans Park.

 A recommendation could not be made as there was no quorum present.
