Lease payments would come from funds raised by the room tax. A motion to approve Abe the Eagle passed by unanimous vote, and a suggestion was raised to install a plaque on the base to commemorate the mustering point for Prescott’s Civil War soldiers. The Parks Committee will follow up on the suggestion.
