As the City continues to make improvements to our beloved downtown area, we found a need for more ways to socialize and enjoy the community we live in. The Commemorative Bench Donation Program will help us do just that. After the positive results of adding 10 benches in the 2023 streetscape project, we want to do more. Our goal is to add more benches to the Bucyrus Commons event space and other locations downtown so you can relax and take in the view.
There are two options for donating: a single donation or a dual donation. The single donation option provides the community a six-foot bench with an engraved metal plaque, for $1,600. Whereas, the dual donation option allows two parties to come together to donate one six-foot bench with up to two plaques, for $800 each.
To express your interest in donating, complete an application or come in-person to City Hall for a paper application. If you have questions, please reach out to elang@smwi.org or call (414) 762-2222.
