SUMMARY STATEMENT:
For many years, notable Paradise Valley residents have been memorialized with a planting, Soleri bell, or plaque installed at various locations on the Town Hall Campus. In 2017, at Mayor Collin’s request, the Historical Advisory Committee developed a policy to provide guidelines and a process for recognizing individuals, groups, or organizations. As part of the policy development process, it was suggested that existing and future memorials be relocated to a centralized location.
The Public Works Department designed and landscaped a reflection path in the center Town Hall parking area. The Mayor and Council will dedicate the reflection path at the beginning of the meeting on Thursday.
