Novato turns 54! New Year, New Possibilities
In January, Novatans came together at the annual "Paint the Town Red" event to celebrate our City's birthday and recognize one of our own, Susan Stompe, as the Citizen of the Year. It was a great reminder of what an amazing community we live, work, and play in--and how we come together to celebrate, to share ideas, and to further a cause.
Case in point, on Jan. 28, the Novato Theater group presented a video to a packed City Council chambers about the importance of the Novato Theater to the community, and the Streetscape Maintenance Advisory Committee presented an annual report, highlighting the group's many activities to keep Novato "Clean and Green." Additionally, on Feb. 4, the City Council recognized Citizen of the Year, Susan Stompe, Large Business of the Year, Best Western PLUS Novato Oaks Inn, and Small Business of the Year, Marin Roto Rooter. All shining examples of "community giving back to community."
On Feb. 11, City Manager Michael Frank will be delivering his fifth State of the City address (will rebroadcast on Channels 26 & 27, and will be available on the City's website) to recap an epic year for Novato and outline a brighter future. So much happening in our City, and so much to look forward to! |
