Lutsk: how a decision on a memorial plaque is made

According to the newspaper Volyn of 12 September 2026 (citing misto.media): who initiates, where the petition goes, who reviews it and who agrees the text with families.

We have not yet found the Lutsk City Council regulation on memorial plaques, so we retell a report by the newspaper Volyn of 12 September 2026 (citing misto.media) about four plaques to fallen servicemen.

  • A plaque can be initiated by the mayor, the city council, executive authorities, public organisations and citizens.
  • A petition goes to the mayor, with a rationale, a proposed place and the source of funding.
  • A working group on memorial plaques reviews it and the executive committee decides. According to the report, the project is developed by the city planning, land and advertising department.
  • Places and inscriptions are agreed with the families beforehand.
  • In the case the newspaper described, all four plaques were made to one sample and paid from the local budget.

Practical conclusion: state who pays in the petition right away; the report does not list a sketch as a requirement, but it helps approval. We are a workshop in Lutsk, so we prepare sketches and quotes for local plaques free of charge.
