PROVINCETOWN – A sidewalk is needed for anyone to look closely to the Provincetown AIDS Memorial next to Town Hall, according to the town Cultural Council. The artist who designed the memorial agrees.
But a majority of the Select Board doesn’t like the sidewalk design, specifically the concrete, and neither does the town Public Landscape Committee.
“A big slab of white concrete with this dark memorial sitting on the top of it doesn’t sit well with me,” Select Board member John Golden said during a Select Board meeting on Monday, May 10.
One of the major goals of the sidewalk would be to allow anyone with disabilities to reach the memorial, according to the Cultural Council. The project is estimated to be $10,800, and the Cultural Council needs about $3,200 more from the town.
HIS bright smile shines out from every photograph. Liam Hendry s family shared these pictures with the Glasgow Times, showing Liam grow from a loving childhood into a fine young man. Raised the youngest son of three boys, he was at the heart of a close knit family who doted on him and he had a solid group of friends who saw each other through thick and thin. But while those friends lives are moving forward - studies, jobs, relationships and children - Liam s life was cut short by a senseless crime. Every day of the trial of his kill, Liam s family arrived at the High Court in Glasgow to show how important he was and how loved.
