Mayor Deb Whitfield seeks neighborhood ambassadors for "Live Longer in Lawrence" program
Summary
Mayor Deb Whitfield announced new neighborhood banners and logos at the Civic Plaza and asked residents to sign up on the city website to serve as ambassadors for the "Live Longer in Lawrence" neighborhood initiative.
Mayor Deb Whitfield recorded a message from the Civic Plaza urging Lawrence City residents to sign up as neighborhood ambassadors for a city branding effort.
"This is your mayor Deb Whitfield out at our Civic Plaza," Whitfield said, pointing listeners to new displays and noting, "we have something very new that we want you to enjoy." She referenced a prior conversation about dividing the city into eight distinct neighborhoods so residents can identify with a specific neighborhood within Lawrence City.
Whitfield said the city's new logos and banners have been posted in the Civic Plaza and on the culture campus and gave examples of neighborhood names including the Pike, Landsville, Sunnyside and the Edge. She framed the recruitment as part of a city program called "Live Longer in Lawrence," saying, "Under the umbrella of Live Longer in Lawrence, we need ambassadors."
She closed by directing residents to the Lawrence City website to register: "So, go to the city website and sign up and let us know that you're interested," Whitfield said.
No formal city action, vote or ordinance was recorded in this announcement; the message functions as a public invitation for volunteer participation and promotion of the neighborhood branding campaign. The city did not specify the ambassador role's duties, selection process, timeline, or any funding details in the recorded message.
