commission talked about george washington to ask that they have a hearing or designate the building as a landmark. and nothing has happened since the last communication, heritage and myself got was in june of this year saying that they were going to look into it, which is every email we get from the staff, they're going to look into it. amy meetings ago you had a hearing about toeland hall. i don't see why they can't have a hearing and make the mother's building a city landmark. what's the problem? these are very important murals. these were all done by women artists, that were leaders of the time. so i'd ask the commissioners to ask staff to set a date when
