Council to honor five mayors at July 4 celebration
Summary
The council approved naming the five living mayors who have led Stafford since incorporation as the honorees for the city's July 4 ceremony and passed a related motion. A separate proclamation for a centenarian veteran was discussed to occur on his birthday.
Council reviewed the July 4 honoree recommendations and discussed whether to recognize two committee-recommended individuals or all five living mayors who have served since the city's incorporation. Councilmember 6 recommended recognizing all five mayors to mark the city's anniversary and to celebrate unity; that motion to approve the five mayors as honorees passed.
Members also discussed honoring a local centenarian and veteran, Mr. Viamante, with a separate proclamation on or near his birthday so he might receive independent recognition. Staff confirmed the committee's memo and recommended outreach to family members for notification.
