Attending: Gladys Beckwith, Linda H gdley, Patricia Heyden, Lee June, Robert
McConnell, Robert Ryan. Absent: William Hubbell. Staff. David Wiener.
1. The meeting was called to order by Linda,Hedley, Acting Chairperson, at 5:40
P.M.
2. McConnell moved and Heyden seconded approval of the minutes of August 13,
1997. The minutes were approved.
3. The Parks Board action regarding the Letts memorial was summarized.
A. The Parks Board Chair (Mary Margaret Murphy-Woll) recommended that the
memorial be in honor of both Olivia and Richard Letts. The Parks Board approved
this recommendation. Olivia served as principal of the Lincoln Elementary School.
The Board recognized that the Kingsley Center is similar to the Lincoln Center
which Richard Letts directed.
B. "Alumni" from the Lincoln Center attended the Parks Board meeting and spoke
in support of the memorial.
C. The letter from Reverend Walter W. Reid, Sr., Pastor of Trinity African
Methodist Episcopal Church, in support of the memorial was distributed.
D. Patricia Heyden reported that Linda Peckham had asked about the policy of the
Board in changing names. The Memorial Review Board members pointed out that
the Kingsley family owned the plat for which Kingsley Court is named. Kingsley
Center was named because of its proximity to Kingsley Court. The Court will still
retain the Kingsley name.
E. The Memorial Review Board recommended that the name of the memorial be
"The Richard and Olivia Letts Center."\
4. It was moved by Patricia Heyden and seconded by Gladys Beckwith that the
Memorial Review Board recommend that the Kingsley Center be renamed the
Richard and Olivia Letts Center. There was unanimous support for the motion.
5. The MRB members stated that any further action on the recommendation should
await a recommendation by the Kingsley Advisory Board.
6. MRB members asked that Eric Reickel, Director of the Parks Department, be
asked about planning a ceremony and event for the renaming of the Center.
7. The meeting was adjourned at 6:20 P.M. ,

Attending: William Hubbell,Chair; Gladys Beckwith, Patricia Heyden, Lee June,
Robert McConnell, Robert Ryan. Absent: Linda Hedley. Staff: David Wiener
1. Chairperson Hubbell called the meeting tb order at 5:35 P.M.
2. Bob Ryan moved to approve the minutes. They were approved.
3. The Board discussed its recommendation to the Lansing Entertainment and Public
Facility Authority (LEPFA) to set up historical displays at the Lansing Center. The
members clarified that they were not necessarily recommending a display case. A
photo display, such as the one at the City Market, would be easier and even more
effective than a display case.
The Board.suggested that a committee of the Memorial Review Board and the
LEPFA Board be created to develop these ideas. It was suggested that a letter be
sent to the LEPFA Board clarifying the MRB's intent, and even specifying that a
pictorial history is preferred. Such an exhibit could be placed at different locations
in the building. There could also be braille and audio components to the exhibit.
4. Discussion on naming the Kingsley Center in honor of Richard Letts.
An application was presented from Trinity African Methodist Episcopal Church to
honor Richard Letts by naming the Kingsley Center in his honor. Bob McConnell
said that the Center is currently named after Phinias Kingsley who was a landowner
in the area in the late nineteenth century and after whom Kingsley Court is named.
McConnell spoke to the Chair of the Kingsley Advisory Board who presented the
idea to his Board. They have it under consideration and will give us a formal
response at some future date.
The Board discussed the process for proceeding with this application. The request
should go to the Parks Board which has the authority to name any Parks facility or
area. A courtesy copy of the MRB's letter to the Park Board should also go to the
Kingsley Advisory Board.

It was moved by McConnell and seconded by June to support the request to name
the Kingsley Center in honor of Richard Letts and to send a letter to this effect to
the Park Board. Furthermore, if the Park Board approved the request, to send the
MRB's recommendation on to the City Council.
The motion was unanimously approved.
5. City Hall Plaza
Bob Ryan suggested that the MRB consider naming the City Hall Plaza in honor of
Richard Letts if the recommendation to name Kingsley Center in his honor failed.
Another Board member stated that the sponsor of the current application should
decide on such a proposal.
There was discussion about the possibility of using the plaza to honor women and
veteran groups. The idea of having a rotating memorial was also suggested. It was
mentioned that Chicago City Hall has a perpetual flame in honor of veterans on its
plaza and we might consider such a memorial here. No action was taken on these
suggestions.
6. David Wiener reported that there has been no further response to the initial
request to rename Kirscher Field or install a honorary plaque. The person who
inquired about this possibility in the Spring has never submitted an application.
7. David Wiener also reported that to his knowledge the MRB will not have to
review the naming of the Rotary Steam Clock being installed at Wentworth Park
since the clock will not be named in any one person's honor.
8. The Board adjourned at 6:40 P.M.

Dear President Beal:
At its meeting of August 13, 1997, the Memorial Review Board approved naming the Kingsley
Community Center in honor of Richard Letts. The Memorial Review Board then referred the
application fofthe Letts Memorial to the Parks Board for its review and recommendation.
The Parks Board met on Thursday, August 21 and recommended that the Kingsley Center be
named for both Richard and Olivia Letts. Dulles Copedge, Chair of the Kingsley Advisory Board,
participated in the discussion and agreed with the recommendation. Mr. Copedge is polling
members of his Board to ascertain their position on the proposal.
On behalf of the Memorial Review Board, I am referring this proposal to Council for
consideration by the appropriate committee. Members of the various Boards, and other interested
persons,will be available to discuss the issue at the next meeting of the Council committee
assigned to review the proposal.
Sincerely yours,

Donald Ristow, Chair

Lansing Center
Lansing, Michigan 48933
Dear Chairman Ristow:
On July 14, 1997 I sent you a letter(see attached) on behalf of the Memorial Review Board
recommending that an historic exhibit --such as a display case--be placed in the Lansing Center
to honor Lansing's history.
At its meeting last night, the Memorial Review Board had further discussion about its proposal
and asked me to clarify to you and the LEPFA Board that it would recommend pictorial exhibits
rather than a display case. Pictorial exhibits have the advantage of being easier to maintain, can
be placed at various sites, can be changed or moved and are often more attractive and dramatic
than a single display case.
Therefore, I am amending my former letter to you, to specify that the Memorial Review Board's
recommendation is to establish pictorial exhibits rather than a display case in the Lansing Center
to honor Lansing's history.
If your Board has an interest in exploring this idea, we could establish a joint sub-committee to
develop it and come back with specific recommendations.
Thank you for your attention to this proposal.
Sincerely yours,
David M. Wiener
Executive Assistant to the Mayor and Staff to the Memorial Review Board

Minutes - July 9, 1997
i, s13 CITY C►ERI�
Attending: Robert Ryan, Co-Chair; Gladys Beckwith, Patricia Heyden, Lee June, Robert
McConnell.
Absent: Linda Headley, William Hubbell
1. Meeting called to order by Co-Chair Robert Ryan at 5:40 P.M.
2. Co-Chair Ryan raised a procedural question about considering the applications for Centennial
Row berm project before the applications were submitted to the City Clerk's Office pursuant to
the Memorial Review Ordinance. McConnell moved that the Board review the berms in question
tonight, refer our action to the Clerk's office so it is part of the public record and, in the future,
make certain that the applications are referred to the Clerk's office prior to MRB consideration.
3. Kelly Thompson, Executive Director of the Principal Shopping District, make a presentation to
the Board on the Centennial Row project.
A. He has used the Sesquicentennial Brochure and a recent Lansing State Journal editorial
on the Sesquicentennial to determine companies that are over 100 years old. These include: East
Lansing Electric; Padnos Steel; Michigan Miller Insurance Company; Frazier, Trebilcock Law
Firm. He hasn't sent notices of the program to churches, service and fraternal organizations, but
he agrees that these should be included. Kelly indicated that the focus has been on businesses
initially because of the business orientation of the PSD.
B. Pat Heyden urged Kelly to include religious organizations.
C. Kelly clarified that it is up to the PSD to sell bricks to fund each berm project. The
purchase of a brick is tax deductible since the funds go to the City. Additional dollars collected
for each project would go to a maintenance fund for the berms. Checks are made out to the City
since the PSD is part of City government.
D. It was clarified that the MRB's conditions for approval of a berm project is that the
company named must be at least 100 years old and that the PSD will be responsible for raising the
funds for the project.
E. It was agreed that more than one company's name could be on the front stones of each
berm.
F. It was moved by McConnell, second by June, to approve a berm for the Lansing State
Journal. Passed by unanimous vote.
G. It was moved by Beckwith, second by McConnel, to approve a berm for Community
First Bank, with it original name, Capitol Savings and Loan, included on the front stone. Passed
by unanimous vote.
H. It was moved by Lee, second by Beckwith, to approve a berm for Sparrow Hospital.
Passed by unanimous vote.
4. It was recommended by Pat Heyden, with support from Beckwith, that the MRB approach the
Lansing Center to establish a historical display case in the Lansing Center lobby. It was
recommended that the Lansing Historic Society maintain the exhibit.
5. There was discussion on the use of the City Hall Plaza as a perpetual historic recognition site.
The members were asked to come back with ideas on how this might be accomplished.
6. It was suggested that the Kingsley Center be named in honor of Richard Letts. Bob McConnell
said that he would look into this possibility and seek an applicant.
7. The meeting was adjourned at 6:45 P.M. The next meeting will be on Wednesday, August 13,
1997 at 5:30 P.M.

Lansing, Michigan 48933
Dear President Beal:
At its meeting of July 9, 1997, the Memorial Review Board reviewed and approved four
applications for naming Washington Avenue berms under the Principal Shopping District
"Century Row" project. As you remember, Council already approved the berm application from
Oldsmobile. In its resolution Council also stated its support for the project and asked that the
Memorial Review Board review each subsequent application from an organization interested in
participating.
The attached applications are from the Lansing State Journal, Sparrow Hospital, First of America
and Community First Bank. Each of these organizations is over one hundred years old -- either
under their current name or another name-- and have expressed a willingness to assist the PSD in
raising the funds to support the berm project. A berm seating area would not be constructed
unless the full funding has been secured.
The Memorial Review Board also asked Kelly Thompson, Executive Director of the PSD, to send
letters to religious, fraternal and service club organizations in the City that are over 100 years old
to advise them of the"Century Row" project and to invite them to participate.
I do not believe that these applications require Council action under the guidelines established
by your resolution. This letter is simply to inform you of the Board's action.

Lansing, Michigan 48933
Dear Chairman Ristow:
At its meeting on July 9, 1997, the Memorial Review Board passed a resolution recommending
that the Lansing Center establish a display case in its lobby that would feature City of Lansing
history. The display case would be maintained by the Greater Lansing Historic Society and the
Sesquicentennial Commission.
The resolution was suggested in the context of a.discussion of the Sesquicentennial celebration of
the founding of Lansing as Michigan's capital city in 1847. With the centennial exhibit opening at
the State Historical Museum, other celebrations planned for this year and the growing interest in
Lansing's history, the Memorial Review Board thought that the time was right to have a
permanent display of Lansing's history for our out-of-town visitors at the Lansing Center.
If you would like representatives from the Review Board and the Greater Lansing historical
Society to make a presentation to the LEPFA Board regarding this proposal, they would be happy
to do so. Please contact me for further information or further discussion on this suggestion.
Sincerely yours,
David M. Wiener

Meeting of June 11, 1997 LAi, NG UFI CLERI`�
Attending: William Hubbell, Chair; Linda Headley, Pat Heyden, Lee June, Bob
McConnell, Bob Ryan. Absent: Gladys Beckwith.
1. The meeting was called to order by Chairperson Hubbell at 5:45 P.M.
2. Kelly Thompson, Executive Director, Principal Shopping District, made a
presentation on his application for the "Century Row" project on South Washington
Mall. The project would enable Lansing companies over 100 years old to have their
name placed on the capstone of a retaining wall that would be part of a seating area
in the berms on South Washington. Funds for each berm project would be raised by
selling commemorative bricks in the pathway and retaining wall. Drawings were
presented by the architecture fur retained by the PSD and the project was further
explained by their representatives.
3. The intent of the initial phase of the project as presented by the PSD is to enable
Oldsmobile to establish three berms in honor of their Centennial. During the
discussion by the Board, it was moved that Oldsmobile be allowed only one berm.
Furthermore, the Board moved that it review any additional berm project in order to
assure that companies meet the century criteria, that they are able to fund the project
and that no one company occupies a disproportionate number of berms thereby
eliminating the opportunity for other interested companies. This recommendation
was passed on to the City Council for its consideration and action.
4. Linda Peckham, President of the Greater Lansing Historical Society and
Executive Director of the Lansing Sequicentennial Commission, made a brief
presentation on the importance of retaining historic names. She also cautioned the
Board to be sure that companies purchasing berm sitting areas are indeed one
hundred years old. Finally, she suggested that the Board consider naming the City
Hall plaza in honor of a Lansing historical person during the Sequicentennial Year.
5. The meeting was adjourned at 7:10 P.M.
