• SILVERA MEMORIAL <br />Council member Carlson has requested the opportunity to discuss the issue of designating <br />a memorial, possibly a park, to Officer Silvera. She has also requested that this issue be <br />first on the agenda as Jennifer Silvera will be present, but has another meeting that she <br />needs to leave for. <br />Last April, during discussion of the legislation designating the Shawn Silvera Memorial <br />Highway, other possible forms of recognition were briefly discussed by the Council. <br />Naming a park was suggested as well the idea put forth by Officer Silvera's friends and <br />co- workers of the Lino Lakes Police Department that a memorial be constructed at the <br />Police Station. Some thought and research had been put into a possible design, theme <br />and cost for that memorial. The minutes from that meeting note "that eventually a City <br />policy should be drafted regarding memorials within the City ". It was concluded that at <br />some time in the future this policy will be developed and discussed by the Council. <br />Staff wishes to make the Council aware of Resolution No. 98 -47 which regulates the <br />naming of parks within the City. It is my understanding that this resolution was passed in <br />response to a request to name a park after a family member. <br />• <br />
