SUMMARY
At its regular City Council Meetings the Council and the public have been receiving brief updates from
the Centennial Committee under Extraordinary Business. As the Centennial celebration nears, the
Council is requesting the following information:
A current and detailed report on the planning for the October 29, 2016 Centennial Celebration,
including details on the parade, birthday luncheon, and street dance.
How the Centennial Committee intends to facilitate City Council Members' participation in the
Centennial Parade.
How the Centennial Committee intends to facilitate City Board and Commission Members'
participation in the Centennial Parade.
How City staff and the community groups are being included in participating in the parade.
The Centennial Committee has been approaching City Boards and Commissions about their
participation in the parade and the requirements for doing so, including the following:
1. Options with regard to parade participation, include walking in the parade, riding in the parade,
or sitting in reserved bleacher seats. The Centennial Committee has asked that Board and
Commissions choose just one group option with regard to walking or riding in the parade.
2. If a Board or Commission chooses to ride in the parade the Centennial Committee will provide
the automobile; however, they would appreciate any help with securing vehicles. Parade cars
must be convertibles manufactured between 1916 and 1960.
3. Participating groups will need to come up with a themed costume idea which will then be
approved by the Centennial Committee. Costumes should be historical in nature spanning 1916
through 1970.
