Letter
Dear Ms. Stidham:
The staff of the Commission of Fine Arts has reviewed the design for a plaque recognizing the board and project team of the National Desert Shield and Desert Storm Memorial, to be installed in the northern planted area near the exit from the memorial site. The staff finds the plaque design to be consistent with the overall design approved by the Commission of Fine Arts and, with the authority delegated by the Commission at its meeting of 20 October 2022, approves this minor change to the final design for the site as documented in the materials received 20 October 2026.
As always, the staff is available to assist you with future submissions.
Sincerely,
/s/Thomas E. Luebke, FAIA
