Patriotic crosswalk and crosswalk policy

Supported agendizing the crosswalk discussion, saying the policy needs to be buttoned up so sponsors pay all costs and maintenance responsibility is clear.

Opposed using city streets as billboards for messaging, suggesting the city should rent crosswalk spaces and questioning how locations would be chosen.

Said banners over the street would be more appropriate than a crosswalk for commemorating the 250th anniversary.

Favored a permanent patriotic crosswalk and suggested a city-run donation mechanism could offset costs.

Said simplicity is best and crosswalks should stay white, warning the policy opens Pandora's box; suggested banners and rotating monthly colors as alternatives.

Supported agendizing the topic, urged clarifying the policy first, and noted the NCIP process as a model; saw potential in diverse crosswalk designs.
