The Granville Village Council introduced Resolution 2025-29 expressing support for the state commission organizing events for the United States' 250th anniversary.

Council members said many Ohio municipalities are supporting the statewide effort and described a recommended scope of summer events for the 250th celebration. Council members asked whether any village-specific actions were required; staff and council representatives said there will be many volunteer and event opportunities and that local groups, including the Granville Community Foundation and the recreation commission, are beginning to plan activities.

Council members named Billy Zimmer and the Granville Community Foundation as local organizers who are coordinating a large community picnic linked to the state celebration; the rec commission was reported to be assisting. Council members said the state will provide packets and materials for communities that wish to participate and that village volunteers will be able to support events as they are organized.

The resolution was introduced and seconded; no final roll-call vote is recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.

Council members encouraged residents and community groups to participate in planning and indicated the village would share information as event plans develop.
