Chair invites contributions for City Hall time capsule ahead of America 300
Summary
The chair asked council members to contribute items—coins, T‑shirts, banners, programs, newspapers and a personal letter—to a time capsule to be sealed in the City Hall basement and opened in 50 years at the America 300 celebration.
The chair asked council members to bring items to include in a City Hall time capsule that will be sealed in the building's basement and opened in 50 years at the city's America 300 celebration. He said he has "collected coins," "collected t shirts, the banners we hung out front, the programs, the newspapers" and will include "a picture of counsel" and photographs from around the city.
He invited any council member who wished to contribute to bring items to him by the end of the month and said he plans to write a personal letter to put in the capsule. A brief exchange followed in which a council member noted the time frame and joked about longevity; the chair observed that in 50 years he would be about 84 and members responded with light remarks. The remarks were presented as an invitation rather than an official action or appropriation.
