Council considered a resolution to promote awareness and education about Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) and to observe the Epilepsy Awareness Act on Oct. 26, 2025. The council president explained he was asked by the president of the North Olmsted council to encourage other communities to adopt the resolution.

Mayor Orcutt and staff discussed scheduling and public recognition. Recreation program coordinator Danny Colonna has agreed to paint the city rock (temporary color change) to mark observance; staff noted the city rotates rock colors for different community recognitions and that the SUDEP observance would be coordinated accordingly.

Council members agreed to cosponsor and moved the resolution forward; the motion to advance the item for introduction carried on a roll call vote. Council noted that while November is also a month recognized for related epilepsy awareness, House Bill 229 (as cited in the caucus dialogue) supports observing Oct. 26, 2025 in the city.
