The City Council presented a citation recognizing the Cameo Diner’s multi‑generational service to the Centerville neighborhood, recounting the diner’s history dating to the early 1900s and noting community contributions. Councilor Robinson read the citation and invited the family to the podium; Scott Conant Sr. and family accepted remarks and thanked the council.
During the recognition, Councilor Robinson proposed naming a planned new splash park after Scott Conant Sr. and his late wife Janice, saying the diner had been a neighborhood gathering place for decades. Councilors approved a motion to accept the citation and place it on file. The council took no formal naming vote at the meeting; a council roll call recorded the citation acceptance and multiple councilors voiced support for the naming suggestion.
Speakers from the public also shared personal anecdotes about the diner’s role in community life. The manager and councilors noted the diner’s local philanthropy and support for neighborhood teams as part of the citation’s justification. Further steps on the proposed park naming—such as formal naming hearings or park‑naming processes—were not completed at the meeting and would require separate council action if pursued.
