I am president of the Pulaski County Historical Society, and we planted a WWI Memorial Tree in MacArthur Park last February. We are finally getting around to ordering a marker for the tree. We would like to install a 12" x 7" bronze plaque on a 17" stake in front of the tree. I am attaching the tree location as well as the proof of our plaque and photos of these plaques on 17" stakes. Brian Minyard and Stephan McAteer have given their approval. I appreciate your help.

You will need to also get Stephan McAteer’s approval.

Here's the folder of examples again for Stephan and a map showing location of tree. Thank you!

He is included in this email.

We have been round and round about what the marker should look like, and I've asked one of our board members to get a quote from a company she has used in the past. They are working on the proof for us now, but the company sent some pictures of their plaques on 17" stakes (attached). Would something like this be permissible in MacArthur Park?
