Purpose of Surfside Memorial Committee a. The Town Commission assembled this Town Manager's Committee, which is meant to serve as a recommending body to find a voice for the stakeholders, as we, the Town Administration, and the Town Commission, embark on getting a final, physical memorial created. We bring everyone to the table to gather input and feedback to help with the process of developing the Memorial. 4. Pathway to Committee (Attached) a. Where do we start, we don't just start building. We need to find an architect, artist, a team that will lead this process from the professional services standpoint. We are going to start preparing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) package that will include criteria/parameters that will help guide the design team on the development of a concept for the memorial. We will go into ideas for the criteria further along in this meeting during the PowerPoint presentation we will share. b. The Town Manager will start the process to close that local roadway. The Town does have some influence over this area; however, we must always accommodate some driveway access for the existing and future buildings along 88th Street as well as accommodate some fire use. Once we have made these accommodations then we can close the street to the beach. i. The future building is going to require some driveway/approach access.
