City Council <br />Meeting Minutes <br />January 10, 2023 <br />Page 7 of 8 <br />Mayor Maloney stated the Marshall Fire affected the whole community and whatever we <br />do, we need to do it right. The call did limit the location options and perhaps others <br />should be considered. He stated he would like to see a process for a piece of art <br />designed for placement at the arboretum. <br />MOTION: Councilmember Brown moved that this item be sent back to the LCC for <br />additional discussion. Councilmember Leh seconded the motion. <br />Councilmember Leh suggested to table this proposal for now to allow for a discussion <br />additional options and perhaps a second process for a piece to be placed in the <br />arboretum. <br />Councilmember Most stated she likes the motion so that perhaps the LCC can consider <br />a second process for a piece to be placed in the arboretum using 2023 money. <br />Councilmember Brown stated his goal is to have some options and discuss the <br />concerns about the location. He wants to know if there are other options or additional <br />public art projects that can be dedicated to the Marshall Fire. <br />Mayor Maloney stated the Councilmembers all want to support the process but he feels <br />they would be remiss to create a process from the dais. He asked the City Manager to <br />bring back options. <br />Councilmember Dickinson suggested this sculpture could be accepted for City Hall and <br />a second process could happen for the arboretum. The committee went through the <br />proper process and this is a prominent and appropriate place to put it. He supports <br />moving this forward as presented. <br />Councilmember Leh stated maybe this is an issue about which fire victims should have <br />a greater say. He is concerned the process was insufficient in including fire victims. <br />Mayor Maloney asked for a vote on tabling this item and have staff bring back options <br />after additional discussion with the LCC. <br />VOTE: Members voted 5-1 to table the item with the plan to bring it back with additional <br />options with Councilmember Dickinson voting no. <br />CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS <br />Mayor Maloney announced the following appointments <br />
