TITLE
Consider and take appropriate action regarding a request from the Trophy Club Women's Club for the designation of a
small landscaped area within Independence Park West as a Veteran’s Memorial Garden to honor U.S. Veterans.
EXPLANATION:
Annually the Trophy Club Women’s Garden Club partners with the Town in contributing both their time and monies in
creating or improving various projects on public property (Fire Station, Trophy Gardens and flag pole banners to name a
few). This year they have requested to use a small area within Independence Park West to begin a phased process of
creating a memorial honoring U.S. Veterans. They are seeking approval to move forward on this concept and are
prepared to purchase a flag pole and flags to begin this process.
