According to city manager Dan Wright, the plans are to create a spot for the flags in the display area of the Ring-gold Depot.
“I think it will be a great addition to the displays we already have up at the Depot,” Wright said. “Any time we can add pieces of history for folks to see, it’s great for the city”
