1 June 18 Meeting Response This is NOT a Q&A. This is a "Read the questions and answer the ones you want to answer meeting". Why does it need to be moved? Been there 80 years as it should be in front of the Alamo. #RememberNotReimagineTheAla Is there a place where all questions will be collected and answered? Protect the Cenotaph NOW! Keep people from crawling on it. I saw it with my own eyes. What is the city doing to protect Who's funding this project and why? You read my question, but no answer! The street closures (Alamo, Houston, etc) traffic plan using Losoya as a two way street is absurd. It WILL NOT work. Propos Its not and shouldn't be a community decision, mayor or council decision, the Alamo and Cenotaph belong to the whole o No weddings Stop serving alcohol on the Alamo grounds Use augmented reality interpretation Sorry. Did not realize I was submitting something so many times. Forgive me. Don't close alamo street Alamo2018 #SavetheCenotaph It's not a museum. It's not an opinion and it's certainly not "pop culture." Texans are focuse Don't let the City of San Antonio do to the Alamo Plaza what they did to Travis Park!!! I think the planned museum is TOO SMALL. The reused west buildings should be Restaurants and cafes would work better, Republican Convention Voted with 93% in favor and passed Not to move the Cenotaph Texans want you to repair the cenotaph where it stands Listen to th Why do the City of S.A. officials have greater input than any other citizen, voter, or taxpayer? How about sitting down with We The Texas born bred & raised and talking about this? Leave our History alone. Plain & sim We have 11,000 names on petition to not move the Cenotaph The Historic buildings on the Crockett block should be renovated & repurposed as the museum. There is no need to demo Don't the City do to the Alamo like what they did to Travis Park!! 1: I'm okay to give reason to historical names. Either by naming Streets or walk ways. Bring back "Dorango" in the downtown area and other names returned. I'm not okay with a "name" at the entrance to the Period flags, NO. Not ONE Name near any of the missions. 2. I'm okay with the movement of the flame. Or incorporating the smaller life sized statuary around the flame. 3. I believe the flame of friendship does work here. But no one knows why the hell it is. Signage is important. 4. Okay to this, keep it open for the commemorative parade. Yet closed all other times to through vehicular traffic. 5. No sketch attached. I'm okay with blocking Crockett to through traffic, moving Lady Birds fountain and creating a round 6. I'm okay with recreating the main portal gate as definition. Other defining points can be completed with low walls and v 7. I'm okay with the removal of the northwest corner buildings of Crockett and Alamo. They are not truly significant.

Respect the Defenders and leave the war memorial and family headstone / Cenotaph Where it stands Leave the Plaza Open 24/7 no directing the visitors Why was the format changed?

I'm not okay with a "name" at the entrance to the Period flags, NO. Not ONE Name near any of the missions. 2. I'm okay with the movement of the flame.

There scale of the plaza, but NOT a full on south wall with the mission gate included. This would block the "street" and any cerem 8. The rebuild of the SW corner and cannon display could tie into the current structures of the west wall. NO to tearing do 9. Agree to the TOO SMALL of museum planned in the reused west buildings. Restaurants and cafes would work better, ope It is working through. If we have other ideas, where should we present?? How does the passing of Plank 296 at the RPT GOP convention affect the Alamo master plan? Don't Move the Cenotaph Leave it on the ground where they died I've seen several of these presentations. All from people usually not living in our city. So,,,, As our city evolved. It grew arou But, this should not happen!! Close off Alamo most of the time! Sure!! Open it up for parades and celebrations. Close off Houston street from Broadway a commemorative stamps and post cards. Move Lady Birds fountain infront of the Crockett and Menger Hotels, create a roundabout and new entries for the Menger, Make Lasoya a two way street. Keep north Alamo closed for most of the time, but for parade celebrations and events. MOVE the Fiesta Flambou Parade, That parade pays no attention to the Alamo. Have it turn down Lasoya. So Alamo Street will be closed from Commerce to Houston most of the year! Take down the none historic west/south walls along crocket st of the mission, open the park at all times! Remove the non h Make Bowie a North South thoroughfare. Our country is dotted with Spanish missions. They are historic, no doubt. Our Alamo is so much more than a mission, espe Don't move Cenotaph!

You are trying to Doom the great state of And why are you gonna take more money from Texans to do your dirty work? Who gave you the God given Right to remove anything that was paid for by the citizens of Texas? Don't move the Cenotaph! If the cenotaph is moved as proposed, don't surround it closely with trees so the memorial disappears behind the foliage. Please leave the Alamo Cenotaph intact and in place.

How is the battle interprested for visitors who come to Alamo Plaza? The majority of Texans do not want the Cenotaph moved.

What about all the hydrology that could damage the exis I am a descendant of a defender and do not want the Cenotaph moved #rethinknirenberg This plan falls short of the historical emphasis of the Alamo story. It's not bold enough. It lacks the Spanish Colonial sense o Do not touch the CENOTAPH!!!! The historic site has walls NOT glass railings - I want to experience 1836 not a walk in the park! I can go to other parks for th People come to visit and don't intend to spend their whole vacation in the Alamo only. They have other places (Missions) t LEAVE IT ALONE! Use $$ to make improvements where needed DO NOT DESTORY HERITAGE OAKS! WILL THEY BE RELOCATED? SAVE THE OAK TREES TOO! DON'T JUST CUT THEM DOWN! Happy to see that we are finally closing the streets to vehicle traffic. We need less chaoes and noise and more reverence. Alamo is ALREADY - AS IS - most visited of all sites in Texas. That tells you to leave it alone. It is genuine- real- something peop Do not move the Cenotaph - it is disrespectful to move it. The Cenotaph is our family tombstone. It should stand where the Alamo Defenders died INSIDE THE WALLS The people of Texas, the Texas Legislative Body, and the Governor will not support this Alamo Plaza Interpretive Plan when Remember the Alamo - Don't close the Plaza to the public. This so- called plan totally lacks historical impact and profoundly lacks historical passion and vision. This plan will destroy Do NOT removed, relocate or re- imagine the CENOTAPH! Do not WHITEWASH OUR TEXAS HISTORY! This, the Alamo is the h Scrap this plan. Save the Cenotaph. THIS IS A SACRED SHRINE AS IS THE CENOTAPH Do not reimagine. Remove Trevino from Advisory.

Most of this plan is a deviation from the original intent of Texas House Bill It appropriated $30M to specifically recre The intent was to transform Alamo Plaza into a historical site of deep respect and reverence not change it into a miniature The Cenotaph should remain in its present location. It was designed by Coppini for that location and should not be moved OPEN HOUSTON STREET This would be an illegal open public hearing. Presentation then questions to public is not legal. The most important part of this plan is the closing of Alamo Street. This must be done immediately. There are no other hist

Why do none of the Plan options include leaving the Cenotaph in current location #DON'T MOVE THE CENOTAPH #REMEMBER THE ALAMO NOT REIMAGINE IT!! DO NOT IKEA THE ALAMO!!!
