After the vote, Ms. Contiguglia summarized the proposal to place a replica of a House member's desk in Mr. Brown's Attic. The desk will have an interactive component that allows school children to vote on 10 different questions. Committee members received a summary of the proposal, prepared by Legislative Council Staff (Attachment G). Ms. Contiguglia addressed a question about whether the questions will be subject to annual review. Ms. Diana Barney, Legislative Aide to Representative Weissmann, came to the table to explain how the questions can be changed in the future. Representative Riesberg suggested that the questions could be changed annually after a contest in which school children can submit new questions. He then added that the Capital Development Committee is very supportive of these types of interactive projects.
