The statues became a favorite target of protests and vandalism during the civil unrest following the May 2020 death of George Floyd. Protesters clashed with police in Grant Park while trying to topple the statue during a large confrontation in July 2020.

The recommendations range from cameras, motion detectors, bio-metrics and 24-hour guards to artificial intelligence, "plexiglass encasement" and "coatings" on the statutes themselves "so that clean-up is easier," Onesti said., the report suggests barriers to keep the public farther away from the statue. There’s even a proposal to educate the public — by installing plaques to "tell the story of the Native American experience.

Onesti refused to put a price tag on the proposed security improvements, saying only that Chicago taxpayers "should come up with 100% of it." "If the mayor comes back and says she needs some involvement from the private sector, we would entertain looking at that." "We’re short as it is. That would be the worst thing to put three shifts of police officers out there protecting it. We don’t want to take guys off the street for that," Sposato said.A civic leader is demanding that Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot apologize for the obscene and derogatory remarks a lawsuit alleges she made about Italian Americans during a phone call to discuss the statue of Christopher Columbus removed from Arrigo Park.
