Removing a statue, while not cheap, takes a fraction of the time


or cost that the things you listed take. Make a call, fund the action, hire someone to do it. There's no reason this should be an either or choice.

Despite what I would expect would be strong support for this especially in and around downtown, I don't think Council thought through the cost side very well, nor maybe appreciated the kind of attention this decision would attract
