Summary
Mitch Reed asked the council to designate Bristow as a Purple Heart City and approve a sign and plaque on Route 66; Councilmember Judd Johns requested a formal plan and vendor details before action.
Mitch Reed appeared before the council March 2 to request that Bristow adopt the Purple Heart City designation for communities along Route 66. Reed told the council the initiative has historical roots stretching to George Washington in 1782 and that, if approved, he would present the city with a plaque and requested the city purchase entrance signage.
