Paramount honored long‑running Gus's Deli for 50 years of service, recognized veterans with Boulevard of Heroes banners and presented a Family Literacy Month proclamation to the Paramount Library.

The council opened its Nov. 18 meeting with community recognitions. Mayor and council members presented Gus’s Deli Barbecue and Grill with a 50‑year recognition, praising the restaurant’s community donations and local ties. "For 50 years, Gus' has been part of what makes Paramount feel like home," the mayor said. Owner Gus thanked the council and said he hopes to return next year.
