Action | CH 0150 Promulgation of regulations for public use of the Robert E. Lee Monument, Richmond, VA |

This monument is state property and such, deserves the protection due to any state facility. I recommend that the facility be closed to the public from dusk to dawn. There should be provisions for special events to be held between dusk and dawn. The monument needs to have an effective yet visually appealing fence around it. CPTED guidelines should be followed when designing the security features including analytic CCTV that notifies the Capitol Police of activity as well as 24/7 monitoring. I also fully support the requirement for protests to be permitted events that require positive identification of the permit organizers.
