During this period, the City investments were in compliance with the Investment Policy and the City had sufficient cash reserves to meet the expenditure requirement for operations for the next six (6) months.

The City maintains checking accounts for general operations, payroll, and the housing account. In addition, we maintain an investment account with LAIF. Funds are also retained by the Bank of New York Mellon for the Successor Agency Bond payments. The general operating account and LAIF represent cash transactions for multiple funds (Pooled Cash) with the amount available for each fund tracked in the general ledger. Interest earned through LAIF is allocated to each fund based on the balance shown in the general ledger. The attached detail report provides balances by Fund as of March 2024.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation to receive and file the Beautification Program updated report for the month of April 2024.

SUMMARY
The City of Hawaiian Gardens Public Housing Authority created a City Beautification Program for exterior improvements for single-family, duplex, and mobile homes, and interior improvements for condominiums. The Program is currently funded through the Hawaiian Gardens Public Housing Authority and the General Fund. This report is an update on General Fund expenditures.

The intent of the Program is to improve the overall appearance of the City of Hawaiian Gardens’ neighborhoods, increase property values, and increase community pride. The improvements on the homes must be deemed beneficial to the overall exterior appearance of the property and address deteriorated and unsightly conditions visible from the street. Financial assistance up to a maximum of $10,000 is provided to property owners and up to $25,000 for substandard cases through a grant. There is also a $2,500 grant available for emergency cases.

STATE CEQA GUIDELINES
WHEREAS, the City of Hawaiian Gardens, California (“City”) is a municipal corporation, duly organized under the California Constitution and laws of the State of California; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the police powers delegated to it by the California Constitution, the City has the authority to enact laws which promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of its citizens; and
WHEREAS, the purposes of Chapter 13.04, Chapter 13.20, and Chapter 6.47 are to protect the health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Hawaiian Gardens; and
WHEREAS, Low Impact Development Standards are required for development and redevelopment to comply with the latest NPDES MS4 permit to lessen water quality impacts by using smart growth practices, and integrate low impact development (LID) practices and standards for storm water pollution mitigation through means of infiltration, evapotranspiration, bioretention, biofiltration, and rainfall harvest and use; and WHEREAS, there are specific requirements for development and redevelopment as it relates to the NPDES MS4 permit including implementation of structural BMPs; and WHEREAS, Water runoff is a major contributor to water pollution in Los Angeles County; and

WHEREAS, all legal preconditions to the adoption of this Ordinance have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HAWAIIAN GARDENS DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. Recitals. The City Council hereby finds that the foregoing recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein as substantive findings of this Ordinance.

SECTION 2. CEQA. The City Council finds that Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“Public Resources Code section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) because it does not qualify as a “project” as defined in State CEQA Guidelines section 15378. First, section 15378 defines a project as an activity that “has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).) Here, the Ordinance is updating the City’s municipal code regarding urban storm runoff control, its water system, and low impact development standards. Accordingly, the Ordinance is not a “project” subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Second, Section 15378 explicitly excludes from its definition of “project” the following: “organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) The Ordinance constitutes an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in a physical change in the environment, and it therefore is not subject to CEQA. In addition, this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to the “common sense” exemption set forth in State CEQA Guidelines, section 15061(b)(3), as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. None of the exceptions to this exemption identified in State CEQA Guidelines § 15300.2 exist here. The City Clerk shall cause a Notice of Exemption to be filed as authorized by CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines.

SECTION 3. Amendment. Chapter 6.47 (Urban Storm Runoff Control) of Title 6 (Health and Safety) of the Hawaiian Gardens Municipal Code is hereby amended to read in its entirety as set forth in Attachment “A” which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 4. Amendment. Chapter 13.04 (Water System) of Title 13 (Utilities) of the Hawaiian Gardens Municipal Code is hereby amended to read in its entirety as set forth in Attachment “B” which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 5. Amendment. Chapter 13.20 (Low Impact Development Standards) of Title 13 (Utilities) of the Hawaiian Gardens Municipal Code is hereby amended to read in its entirety as set forth in Attachment “C” which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 6. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days following its adoption.

SECTION 7. Severability. Should any provision of this Ordinance, or its application to any person or circumstance, be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, unenforceable or otherwise void, that determination shall have no effect on any other provision of this Ordinance or the application of this Ordinance to any other person or circumstance, and, to that end, the provisions hereof are severable. The City Council of the City of Hawaiian Gardens declares that it would have adopted all the provisions of this Ordinance that remain valid if any provisions of this ordinance are declared invalid.

SECTION 8. Adoption, Certification, and Publication. The City Clerk of the City of Hawaiian Gardens shall certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause the same, or a summary thereof, to be published and/or posted in the manner required by law.

SECTION 9. Record of Proceedings. The documents and materials associated with this ordinance that constitute the record of proceedings on which these findings are based are located at City Hall, 21815 Pioneer Blvd, Hawaiian Gardens, CA 90716. The City Clerk is the custodian of the record of proceedings.

ATTACHMENT A – ORDINANCE NO. 2024-617
CHAPTER 6.47 – URBAN STORM RUNOFF CONTROL

6.47.010 Water runoff control findings.

The City finds and declares that:

A. The City is committed to improving the public health, safety, and welfare, including water quality; and
B. Water runoff is a major contributor to water pollution in Los Angeles County and its environs; and
C. The 1972 amendments to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (commonly known as and referred to as the Clean Water Act or "CWA"), 33 U.S.C. Sections 1251 through 1387, prohibit the discharge of any pollutant to waters of the United States from a point source unless the discharge is authorized by a permit issued pursuant to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES") required by CWA Section 402, 33 U.S.C.

Section 1342; and
D. Municipal separate storm sewer systems ("MS4s") that convey urban runoff, including, but not limited to, storm water runoff, are within the definition of point sources under the CWA; and
E. Pursuant to the CWA, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("U.S. EPA") has defined the term "municipal separate storm sewer system" to mean a conveyance, or system of conveyances, including roads with drainage systems, municipal streets, curbs, gutters, catch basins, and storm drains owned or operated by a city, used for collecting storm water; and
F. CWA Section 402(p) requires that the City obtain a permit for storm water and urban discharges through the City's MS4; and
G. CWA Section 402(p) further provides that NPDES permits shall require controls to reduce the discharge of pollutants to the maximum extent practicable in order to achieve water quality standards/receiving water limitations, including management practices and such other provisions as may be appropriate for the control of pollutants; and H. The U.S. EPA, in partial implementation of CWA Section 402(p) has adopted final rules, known as the "Phase I and Phase II Storm Water Regulations" at several places in Parts 9, 122, 123, and 124 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations ("CFR"); and I. In partial implementation of CWA Section 402(p) the Phase I and Phase II Storm Water Regulations and the California Water Code, the Regional Water Quality Control Board— Los Angeles Region issued Order No. R4-2021-0105, NPDES Permit No. CAS004004, Waste Discharge Requirements for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Discharges Within the Coastal Watersheds of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties effective September 11, 2021, to cities in Los Angeles County, including the City; and J. The City is a permittee under the NPDES MS4 permit and therefore is required by Federal and State law to implement all requirements of the NPDES MS4 permit; and K. The goal of the NPDES MS4 permit is to have discharges from land uses in the City and other Los Angeles County drainage basins meet water quality standards suitable for the protection of the beneficial uses of the receiving waters (lakes, rivers, ground water and the ocean); and
L. The NPDES MS4 permit requires the City to avail itself of all requisite legal authority to regulate illegal discharges and illicit disposal practices to drainage facilities, and to prosecute persons who illegally discharge or illicitly dispose of polluting materials into the storm drain system. The City may also cooperate with the Regional Water Quality Control Board by referring violators for enforcement of State and Federal laws.

6.47.020 Purpose and intent.

The purpose and intent of this chapter is to protect the health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City by:

A. Regulating non-storm water discharges to the municipal separate storm sewer system; and B. Eliminating illicit connections to the municipal separate storm sewer system; and C. Providing for the control of spillage, dumping, or disposal of harmful materials into the municipal separate storm sewer system; and
D. Reducing pollutants in storm water and urban runoff to the maximum extent practicable in order to achieve water quality standards/receiving water limitations.

6.47.030 Definitions.

For the purposes of this chapter the following words and phrases shall have the meanings respectively ascribed to them herein, unless clearly inapplicable.

ATTACHMENT C – ORDINANCE NO. 2024-617
CHAPTER 13.20 - LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS

13.20.010 Purpose.

The provisions of this chapter establish requirements for development and redevelopment to comply with the latest NPDES MS4 permit to lessen water quality impacts by using smart growth practices, and integrate low impact development (LID) practices and standards for storm water pollution mitigation through means of infiltration, evapotranspiration, bioretention, biofiltration, and rainfall harvest and use.

13.20.020 Definitions.

For purposes of this chapter, the following terms shall be defined as follows. If the definition of any term contained in this chapter conflicts with the definition of the same term in the latest NPDES MS4 permit, then the definition contained in the NPDES MS4 permit shall apply.

A. Biofiltration means a LID BMP that reduces storm water pollutant discharges by intercepting rainfall on vegetative canopy, and through incidental infiltration and/or evapotranspiration, and filtration. Incidental infiltration is an important factor in achieving the required pollutant load reduction. Therefore, the term "biofiltration" as used in this chapter is defined to include only systems designed to facilitate incidental infiltration or achieve the equivalent pollutant reduction as biofiltration BMPs with an underdrain (subject to approval by the Regional Board's Executive Officer). Biofiltration BMPs include bioretention systems with an underdrain and bio-swales.

B. Bioretention means a LID BMP that reduces storm water runoff by intercepting rainfall on vegetative canopy, and through evapotranspiration and infiltration. The bioretention system typically includes a minimum two-foot top layer of a specified soil and compost mixture underlain by a gravel-filled temporary storage pit dug into the in-situ soil. As defined in this chapter, a bioretention BMP may be designed with an overflow drain, but may not include an underdrain. When a bioretention BMP is designed or constructed with an underdrain it is regulated by the NPDES NS4 permit as biofiltration.

C. Bio-swale means a LID BMP consisting of a shallow channel lined with grass or other dense, low-growing vegetation. Bioswales are designed to collect storm water runoff and to achieve a uniform sheet flow through the dense vegetation for a period of several minutes.

D. City means the City of Hawaiian Gardens.

E. Clean Water Act or CWA means the Federal Water Pollution Control Act enacted in 1972, by Public Law 92-500, and amended by the Water Quality Act of 1987. The Clean Water Act prohibits the discharge of pollutants to waters of the United States unless the discharge is in accordance with an NPDES MS4 permit.

F. Development means construction, rehabilitation, redevelopment or reconstruction of any public or private residential project (whether single-family, multi-unit or planned unit development); industrial, commercial, retail, and other non-residential projects, including public agency projects; or mass grading for future construction. It does not include routine maintenance to maintain original line and grade, hydraulic capacity, or original purpose of facility, nor does it include emergency construction activities required to immediately protect public health and safety.

G. Discharge means any release, spill, leak, pump, flow, escape, dumping, or disposal of any liquid, semi-solid, or solid substance. When used without qualification the release of a pollutant or pollutants from the MS4.

H. Flow-through treatment BMPs means modular, vault type "high flow biotreatment" devices contained within an impervious vault with an underdrain or designed with an impervious liner and an underdrain.

I. Green roof means a LID BMP using planter boxes and vegetation to intercept rainfall on the roof surface. Rainfall is intercepted by vegetation leaves and through evapotranspiration. Green roofs may be designed as either a bioretention BMP or as a biofiltration BMP. To receive credit as a bioretention BMP, the green roof system planting medium shall be of sufficient depth to provide capacity within the pore space volume to contain the design storm depth and may not be designed or constructed with an underdrain.

J. Infiltration means a LID BMP that reduces storm water runoff by capturing and infiltrating the runoff into in-situ soils or amended on-site soils. Examples of infiltration BMPs include infiltration basins, dry wells, and pervious pavement.

K. Low impact development (LID) means the implementation of systems and practices that use or mimic natural processes to: 1) infiltrate and recharge, 2) evapotranspire and/or 3) harvest and use precipitation near to where it falls to earth.

L. Municipal separate storm sewer system or MS4 means a conveyance or system of conveyances (including roads with drainage systems, municipal streets, catch basins, curbs, gutters, ditches, manmade channels, or storm drains) (40 CFR Section 122.26(b)(8)):

2. Designed or used for collecting or conveying storm water;

3. Which is not a combined sewer; and

4. Which is not part of a publicly owned treatment works (POTW) as defined at 40 CFR Section 122.2 (40 CFR Section 122.26(b)(8)).

M. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System or NPDES means the national program for issuing, modifying, revoking and reissuing, terminating, monitoring and enforcing permits, and imposing and enforcing pretreatment requirements, under CWA Sections 307, 402, 318, and 405. The term includes an "approved program." N. Natural drainage system means a drainage system that has not been modified using engineering controls (e.g., channelized or armored). The clearing or dredging of a natural drainage system does not cause the system to be classified as modified for purposes of the “Hydromodification Management Requirements” in the MS4 Permit..

O. Parking lot means land area or facility for the parking or storage of motor vehicles used for businesses, commerce, industry, or personal use, with a lot size of 5,000 square feet or more of surface area, or with 25 or more parking spaces.

P. Pollutant means any "pollutant" defined in Section 502(6) of the Federal Clean Water Act or incorporated into the California Water Code Section 13373.

Q. Project means all development, redevelopment, and land disturbing activities. The term is not limited to "project" as defined under CEQA (Public Resources Code Section 21065).

R. Rainfall harvest and use means a LID BMP system designed to capture runoff, typically from a roof but can also include runoff capture from elsewhere within the site, and to provide for temporary storage until the harvested water can be used for irrigation or nonpotable uses. The harvested water may also be used for potable water uses if the system includes disinfection treatment and is approved for such use by the local Building Department.

S. Redevelopment means activity that includes, but is not limited to: the expansion of a building footprint; addition or replacement of a structure; replacement of impervious surface area that is not part of routine maintenance activity; and land disturbing activity related to structural or impervious surfaces. It does not include routine maintenance to maintain original line and grade, hydraulic capacity, or original purpose of facility, nor does it include emergency construction activities required to immediately protect public health and safety.

T. Regional Board means the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles region.

U. Routine maintenance includes, but is not limited to, projects conducted to:

1. Maintain the original line and grade, hydraulic capacity, or original purpose of the facility.

2. Perform as needed restoration work to preserve the original design grade, integrity and hydraulic capacity of flood control facilities.

3. Includes road shoulder work, re-grading dirt or gravel roadways and shoulders and performing ditch cleanouts.

4. Update existing lines* and facilities to comply with applicable codes, standards, and regulations regardless if such projects result in increased capacity.

5. Repair leaks.

6. Routine maintenance does not include construction of new** lines or facilities resulting from compliance with applicable codes, standards and regulations. * Update existing lines includes replacing existing lines with new materials or pipes.
** New lines are those that are not associated with existing facilities and are not part of a project to update or replace existing lines.

V. Site means land or water area where any facility or activity is physically located or conducted, including adjacent land used in connection with the facility or activity.

W. Storm water or stormwater means storm water runoff, snow melt runoff, and surface runoff and drainage related to precipitation events (pursuant to 40 CFR Section 122.26(b)(13); 55 Federal Regulations 47990, 47995 (Nov. 16, 1990)).

13.20.030 Application.

A. New development and redevelopment projects listed in Part VIII.F.1.a-b of the NPDES MS4 permit fall under the permittee’s planning and building authority for which the City must impose specific requirements, including the implementation of structural BMPs to meet the performance requirements described in Part VIII.F.4 of the NPDES MS4 permit.

1. Redevelopment projects:
a.Where redevelopment results in an alteration to more than 50 percent of impervious surfaces of a previously existing development, and the existing development was not subject to post-construction storm water quality control requirements, the entire project must be mitigated. b.Where redevelopment results in an alteration of less than 50 percent of impervious surfaces of a previously existing development, and the existing development was not subject to post-construction storm water quality control requirements, only the alteration must be mitigated, and not the entire development.
c.Redevelopment does not include routine maintenance activities that are conducted to maintain original line and grade, hydraulic capacity, original purpose of facility or emergency redevelopment activity required to protect public health and safety. Impervious surface replacement, such as the reconstruction of parking lots and roadways which does not disturb additional area and maintains the original grade and alignment, is considered a routine maintenance activity. Redevelopment does not include the repaving of existing roads to maintain original line and grade.

13.20.040 Low impact development standards for new development and redevelopment planning and construction activities.

Each new development and redevelopment subject to the provisions of this chapter shall be designed to control pollutants, pollutant loads, and runoff volume to the maximum extent feasible by minimizing impervious surface area and controlling runoff from impervious surfaces through infiltration, evapotranspiration, bioretention and/or rainfall harvest and use. The minimum required standards shall be as follows:

A. Street and road construction of 10,000 square feet or more of impervious surface shall follow USEPA guidance regarding Managing Wet Weather with Green Infrastructure:

Green Streets (December 2008 EPA-833-F-08-009), to the maximum extent practicable.

B. All other projects shall prepare a LID plan to comply with the following:

1. Retain storm water runoff on-site for the stormwater quality design volume (SWQDv) defined as the runoff from the greater of the following:
a.The 85th percentile 24-hour runoff event as determined from the Los Angeles County 85th percentile precipitation isohyetal map; or b.The volume of runoff produced from a three-quarter-inch, 24-hour rain event.

2. Minimize hydromodification impacts to natural drainage systems as defined in the NPDES MS4 permit.

3. To demonstrate technical infeasibility, the project applicant must demonstrate that the project cannot reliably retain 100 percent of the SWQDv on-site, even with the maximum application of green roofs and rainwater harvest and use, and that compliance with the applicable post-construction requirements would be technically infeasible by submitting a site-specific hydrologic and/or design analysis conducted and endorsed by a registered professional engineer, geologist, architect, and/or landscape architect. Technical infeasibility may result from conditions including the following:
a.The infiltration rate of saturated in-situ soils is less than three-tenths-inch per hour and it is not technically feasible to amend the in-situ soils to attain an infiltration rate necessary to achieve reliable performance of infiltration or bioretention BMPs in retaining the SWQDv on-site;
b.Locations where seasonal high groundwater is within five to ten feet of surface grade;
c.Locations within 100 feet of a groundwater well used for drinking water; d.Brownfield development sites or other locations where pollutant mobilization is a documented concern;
e.Locations with potential geotechnical hazards;
f. Smart growth and infill or redevelopment locations where the density and/or nature of the project would create significant difficulty for compliance with the on-site volume retention requirement.

4. If partial or complete on-site retention is technically infeasible, the project site may biofiltrate one and one-half times the portion of the remaining SWQDv that is not reliably retained on-site. Biofiltration BMPs must adhere to the design specifications provided in the NPDES MS4 permit.
a.Additional alternative compliance options such as off-site infiltration and groundwater replenishment projects may be available to the project site.

The project applicant should contact the City to determine eligibility.

5. The remaining SWQDv that cannot be retained or biofiltered on-site must be treated on-site to reduce pollutant loading. BMPs must be selected and designed to meet pollutant-specific benchmarks as required per the NPDES MS4 permit. Flowthrough treatment BMPs may be used to treat the remaining SWQDv and must be sized based on a rainfall intensity of:
a.Two-tenths of an inch per hour; or
b.The 85th percentile hourly storm event, as determined from the local historical rainfall record, multiplied by a factor of two.

13.20.050 Effective date.

The requirements of this chapter shall become effective on August 12, 2013. This includes projects subject to discretionary permits or project phases that have not been deemed complete for processing or discretionary permit projects without vesting tentative maps that have not requested and received an extension of previously granted approvals.

RECOMMENDATION:

RECOMMENDATION TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER OR DESIGNEE TO APPLY FOR THE ENERGIZED COMMUNITIES PROGRAM: PATHWAYS TO

ELECTRIFICATION AND INNOVATION GRANT OFFERED AND PRESENTED BY THE

CLEAN POWER ALLIANCE (CPA)

SUMMARY
In a commitment to assist communities in achieving sustainability and decarbonization goals, the Clean Power Alliance (CPA) has brought forth the Energized Communities Program. The Program is made up of two parts: Pathways to Electrification, offering preselected measures to support electrification, and the anticipated Innovation Grant to fund creative sustainability projects in our community. The Pathways to Electrification program offers up to $250,000 to implement one of three project areas including Electric Fleet Transition. The Innovation Grant is expected to be available later this year, and is a competitive grant process the city can apply for.

The Electric Fleet Transition program provides a funding opportunity that prioritizes compliance with current California Air Resources Board regulations that became effective January 1, 2024. The Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation (ACF) requires local government fleets to add Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEV) to the fleet as a percentage of their purchases each year. Currently, 50% of vehicle purchases must be zero-emission which moves to 100% of purchases by January 1, 2027.

Agenda Item #C2

COUNCIL DISCREATION REGARDING THE CITY’S 60TH ANNIVERSARY

HIGHLIGHTS AT FUTURE CITY EVENTS AND SPECIAL EVENTS UPDATE

SUMMARY
2024 Marks the 60th Anniversary of the City of Hawaiian Gardens. Throughout the year our city hosts many community events from large events like the Carnival to smaller events like our breakfast with Santa event. As we continue to celebrate and recognize the City of Hawaiian Gardens for 60 years of growth and prosperity, we would like to highlight some of the City’s history throughout the remaining of the year.

At our Parade VIP breakfast, the city was able to recognize community members who had a significant impact in Hawaiian Gardens. The city will continue to recognize these individuals by creating a short 2-3 minute video for each recipient that was recognized at the VIP breakfast to highlight their accomplishment or contribution to the City’s growth. These videos will be shared on our social media outlets and city website.

At our August 9th, Concerts in the Parks, we will showcase our city’s history with banners and memorabilia that highlight community history and accomplishments. These banners will also be on display at city special events after the August 9th, Community History Concert at the Park. The goal of this is to inform our residents of our rich history, accomplishments, and individual highlights.

At our Independence Day Celebration on July 3rd, as part of our recognition of our 60 Anniversary we have extended the firework display from last year. This year’s firework show will also have a 5 x 10 set piece to reflect “60” in celebration of the city 60 years.

In addition to the 60th Anniversary of the City, this year also marks the 20th Annual Car Show on July 6th. This year, the car show will introduce a special field for cars dedicated to the first year that Impalas were built, the 1958 Chevrolet.

For the first time since 2016, the city will re-introduce their Golf Tournament. This tournament brings city partners, residents, staff, and local business together as the city continues to support local non-profit groups, schools, and youth groups. To recognize the City’s Anniversary, we have “did you know or historical facts” at selected tee box.

The golf tournament will be on October 21st, 2024, at the Old Ranch Country Club.

Next, for this year’s Red Ribbon Rally Walk we plan on creating a partnership with our local schools to provide community-based Art that focuses on our city’s history and future to contribute to this year’s Red Ribbon Week/Art Fair on Wednesday, October 23.

Artwork will be based on our 60th anniversary motto “Looking Back, Moving Forward.” As for the remaining events this year we will continue to incorporate elements to celebrate our 60 years. These events include our Halloween Program, and Christmas event.

To promote the City’s Anniversary, the city replaced the city logo at the C. Robert Lee Activity Center with the new anniversary logo. In addition, the anniversary logo will be used on our special events flyers.

Lastly, we will begin a series of social media stories on social media that highlight past accomplishments and memorable moments of our city.
