The initial vision calls for removal of the amphitheater, the addition of a Beer Garden and Caf, a Pavilion, Playground and Carousel. The schematic design also calls for the continuance of the Hallway along the northern edge of Market Street, special lighting, and an event lawn. This presentation is the initial step in the Project Approval Process for privately funded projects within the Gateway Mall. On a motion by Byron Marshall and seconded by Jack Reis, the Board approved the preliminary prospectus. Lynnea Magnuson then briefly provided an overview of a proposed new memorial in the Civic Room. The Missouri Military Foundation, a not-for-profit corporation, along with the Gold Star Mothers, has proposed the addition of a memorial honoring those killed in the current conflict. The site in discussion would be directly across Chestnut from the Soldiers Memorial. The Foundation would be responsible for all fundraising associated with both the construction and maintenance of the memorial. They are aware that proper approvals, including that of the Advisory Board, will be necessary before proceeding beyond the vision stage. A discussion concerning the Board bylaws then ensued, specifically related to the frequency of meetings (as the scheduled November meeting was cancelled due to lack of agenda items for discussion). Steve Patterson volunteered to work with Tricia Roland-Hamilton to review said bylaws. Andy opened the meeting for any other discussion or comments. There being no further business to come before the Advisory Board, the meeting was adjourned at 12:55 p.m. The next meeting of the Gateway Mall Advisory Board will be held at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, April 20th, 2011. Respectfully Submitted by Tricia Roland-Hamilton.
