Council notes community items: Herb Week proclamation, paperclip project presentation, GRIN ribbon cutting and liquor transfer notice
Summary
Council members announced a Herb Week proclamation, invited students working on a paperclip monument project, noted a GRIN food locker ribbon cutting and received a liquor license transfer notice for Angelino’s Pizza with no police objection.
Several short council items and community announcements were made April 14 during the Committee of the Whole.
Proclamation: Councilmember Padova asked council to approve a joint proclamation recognizing Herb Week and the city’s designation as a herb capital; the proclamation will be presented May 3 at Creekside and the administration coordinated the item with the mayor.
Paperclip project: Padova said students from Gahanna‑Lincoln High School’s paperclip project (a student‑led effort to collect paper clips to memorialize Holocaust victims) are expected to appear before council next week to explain the project and receive a certificate of recognition; no legislative action was required.
GRIN ribbon cutting: Councilmember Padova said the Greater Regional Involvement Network (GRIN) would hold a ribbon cutting at 5:30 p.m. next Monday for new food lockers installed with community grant funding; council members may sign a certificate of recognition being prepared by the clerk.
Liquor‑control notice: Clerk Van Meter reported a transfer of ownership notice for Angelino’s Pizza. He said the Division of Police raised no objection and the clerk will return the notice without requesting a hearing.
Ending: These community and procedural items were placed on the consent/next meeting agendas or handled as routine notices.
