Cleveland council discusses Cleveland Days, Christmas party and 2025 election logistics
Summary
Council members planned Cleveland Days shirts and extensively arranged the town Christmas party (Dec. 20), discussed vendor options and budget, and received preliminary information on which council and mayoral seats will be on the 2025 ballot.
Council members used part of the Dec. 12 meeting to plan community events and discuss election logistics for 2025.
Cleveland Days and shirts: The council discussed producing a new Cleveland shirt (preorder recommended to avoid excess inventory) and considered working with a local vendor. Members agreed to take up designs and theme ideas in January.
Christmas party planning: The council finalized catering and logistics for the council—s holiday party on Dec. 20. Options included smaller baked potatoes or a prepared "yummy" potato pan; staff estimated four pans for about 50 people, plus mac and cheese, rolls and salad. Council discussed pickup times (suggested around 4 p.m.), use of warmers, volunteer setup at 5—5:30 p.m., and a budget cap referenced at $3,500 for dinner. Council confirmed Santa had been booked and debated cake options (Ponderosa/Sysco), with cakes priced at about $75 each (48 servings).
Elections: Staff summarized that two council seats (including Kristen and Whitney) and the mayor—s seat will be on the 2025 ballot; filing paperwork and deadlines likely in June (staff to provide exact dates). Council members discussed possible appointments if incumbents move out of town before their terms end.
Council members assigned follow-ups for vendor contact, pickup coordination and finalizing flyers and schedules for upcoming events.
