Aurora highlights Restaurant Week and the new workforce hub in mayor pro tem report
Summary
Mayor Pro Tem Seville promoted Aurora Restaurant Week through Feb. 3, previewed partners for a newly launched workforce development hub intended to train residents for green‑economy jobs, and announced a Feb. 6 Black History Month meet‑and‑greet with Dennis Biddle.
Mayor Pro Tem Seville used his report to promote local events and recent economic developments.
"Aurora restaurant week continues through February 3," Seville said, urging residents to "support your local restaurants" and directing listeners to aurorarestaurantweek.com for listings and deals.
Seville and the meeting materials highlighted the recent launch of a workforce development hub (described in meeting materials and accompanying video) intended to train Aurora residents for living‑wage jobs in the growing green economy; Seville named early partners and invited further organizations to contact the city's director of sustainability, Lisonbee Lindbergh, to get involved. He also announced a Feb. 6 meet‑and‑greet and traveling museum appearance by Negro Leagues player Dennis Biddle at Aurora Public Art as part of Black History Month programming.
No council action was required for these announcements; they were presented as community and economic development updates for residents and partners.
