A RESOLUTION PROCLAIMING ARBOR CELEBRATION 178
WHEREAS, Eden Prairie is proud of the beautiful shade trees which line
our streets and arch over our homes, and
WHEREAS, Eden Prairie's trees have been a gift to us from those whose
foresight and concern for the future motivated them to plant shade trees
for our benefit and pleasure, and
WHEREAS, the shade tree diseases such as Dutch elm disease and Oak wilt
disease do threaten many of our City's trees with rapid destruction, unless we
take immediate action of a vigorous manner to control these natural disasters,
and
WHEREAS, citizens all around the State of Minnesota are uniting to "Plant
Their Future" in 1978 and reforest the cities of our State, and this is a
commendable effort that the citizens of this City would do well to join, and
WHEREAS, Arbor Day, April 28, 1978, and Arbor Celebration, May 1978, are
times that are to appreciate the contributions made by shade trees to our City
and to undertake a spirited effort to increase their numbers in our neighborhoods,
• NOW THEREFORE, I. Wolfgang H. Penzel, Mayor of the City of Eden Prairie,
do hereby proclaim April 28, 1978, as "Arbor Day" in the City of Eden Prairie,
and do further proclaim the month of May as "Arbor Month" and I call upon the
public spirited and foresighted citizens of our City to plant trees now for the
enjoyment of us and future generations.
