Mr. Fisher stated they have not budgeted <br />for initial grading. <br />Councilmember Wise expressed concern that if we have corporations who put their logos <br />on bricks, etc. you have an advertisement versus a memorial. <br />Mr. Fisher stated they have not given that much thought yet -the purpose is to allow a <br />company to put their logo on if they want to spend that amount of money.
