<br /> <br />, David Friedman <br />Former U-City resident, lived in University City from 1958 until <br />his death in 1980. His family lived in the Loop until1965. He had many <br />exhibitions at the University City Library. His daughter, Miriam, is offering to <br />donate art work to the City because her father enjoyed roaming the back streets <br />to capture the diverse moods of the city and this particular series of about a <br />dozen drawings and 3 paintings. The drawings are not framed and therefore, not <br />ready for exhibition. I don't know if the U City Hall has exhibition space. Ms. <br />Friedman’s stipulations are that the drawings are permanently displayed as well <br />as a description about her father. She would also hope to have the cost of <br />transportation, conservation and framing of the drawing to be covered. Please <br />provide me with your suggestions for this generous donation. I’ve spoken with <br />Linda Ballard at the Library, but we have no definitive solution at this time. I’ve <br /> <br />attached one of Mr. Friedman’s sketches and his bio. <br /> <br />Elected and Appointed Official Training Opportunity: <br />Monday August 21 at 6:30 PM in Council Chambers elected and appointed <br />officials are welcome to attend a training session on the City’s insurance <br />coverage--How it works, when and who is covered and opportunities for a <br />question and answer session with Steve Wicker Director of St. Louis Area <br />Insurance Trust. City Attorney John Mulligan will present on various components <br />of the Missouri Sunshine Law and also be available for specific questions.

To begin preparing for those meetings I have attached draft bills for <br />your review and comment. I have requested the City Clerk post a public hearing <br />for the rezoning of the School District’s property on Delcrest to expedite the <br />process. <br /> <br />th <br />To assist me in preparing for the August 28 study session, please forward <br />any ideas or concerns regarding the Council Work Rules of Order by <br />th <br />August 17.
