Aurora proclaims Missouri Good Neighbor Week after Chamber presentation
Summary
The Aurora City Council recognized Missouri Good Neighbor Week after the Aurora Chamber executive director described the statewide program and asked residents and businesses to nominate neighbors for recognition.
Shannon Walker, identified in the meeting as the Aurora Chamber of Commerce executive director, asked the council to help promote the Missouri Good Neighbor Week initiative and said the program encourages nominations of neighbors and businesses for positive acts.
Walker described how the program—organized statewide by University of Missouri Extension and the Hopeful Neighborhood Project—aims to spotlight acts of community kindness and connection and asked for the city’s partnership in encouraging nominations.
Mayor Tony Kennedy read a proclamation formally recognizing the week in Aurora and encouraged residents to take part in the “acts of neighboring challenge.” The proclamation referenced state action establishing the observance and urged residents to appreciate and serve their neighbors.
The council did not vote on any budget item tied to the proclamation; the proclamation is a community recognition encouraging participation in the statewide program.
