Summary

City staff will pursue a Purple Heart City designation and plans to present a proclamation and install two city-limit signs; staff proposed holding the dedication on Nov. 5, 2024 to align with Veterans Day outreach.

City Clerk Lana Robinson briefed the council on the requirements to designate Sedan a Purple Heart City, including purchasing two Purple Heart City signs for the city limits and preparing a mayoral proclamation.
