Title

A Resolution of the Communications Committee requesting the City Commission to support the creation of a working group for the purpose of organizing and executing events promoting the City’s Centennial anniversary.

Body

On June 9, 2021, the Communications committee met and discussed the assembly of a working group to plan and execute the Centennial celebration of the City of Coral Gables set for 2025.

 

The Centennial festivities will mark the founding of the City’s establishment in 1925, the same year that the University of Miami and the Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce were founded. The Centennial commemorations will provide cultural and historical value to the Coral Gables community. 

 

The working group’s scope will be limited to the purposes of the Centennial celebration and will dissolve after the Centennial events have taken place at the end of 2025.

 

Due to the reasons outlined in this resolution and further discussed in the Communications committee June 9 minutes (attached hereto), the Coral Gables Communication’s committee requests the City Commission to support the creation of a working group for the purpose of organizing and executing events promoting the City’s Centennial anniversary.
