SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~ ~ - MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 22. 1992
RESOLUTION NO. 105-92
DATE: September 18, 1992
This is a resolution recognizing City Government Week, October 4 - 10,
1992, and encouraging all citizens to support the celebration and
corresponding activities.
Florida City Government week is a week set aside yearly by the Florida
League of Cities as a special time to recognize the important role
played by city government in our lives. And, most importantly, this
week is a time to spread the word to all citizens of Florida that they
are an integral part of the government which is closest to the people.
This year's theme: "My City...I'm Part of It...I'm Proud of It",
embraces the belief that all Floridians can shape and influence their
city government. It is hoped that Floridians will think seriously
about active citizenship and their possible role in city government.
We will be promoting this week and the theme by participating in the
Chamber of Commerce's Expo on October 2nd and 3rd at the Delray Mall.
Staff will have three (3) booths at the Expo, representing General
Government, Police and Fire. Additionally, we will be conducting
another Student in Government Day, which is tentatively scheduled for
October 21, 1992.
Recommend approval of Resolution No. 105-92.
