I was wondering if the Commission ever considered a memorial for Steven Smith, the policeman who died in a shoot out in Clintonville approximately a year ago. I’ve meant for a long time to bring this up. I live 2 blocks from where the incident occurred and on that day, all I could think of was the danger to the people living all around there. It only seems appropriate the community acknowledge the officer in some way. I thought maybe a tree planted in Park of Roses or one of the areas along the bike path with a plaque? I love the idea of a tree because it would provide shelter and would seem appropriate for the “feel” of the community. Another possibility may be naming the gym at Whetstone after him?? Anyway, it’s a thought to consider.
Thanks for the good ideas- we did a first responders day in his honor in April of this year. I like the idea of a tree or some kind of physical memorial. I will mention it to the others in the group.
