Title

City of Gainesville Citizens' Academy 2017 Graduates (NB)

Explanation

The City of Gainesville Communications Office offers the Citizens' Academy, dubbed “Gainesville 101,” to educate Gainesville citizens on the diverse services their city government provides and to inform them on how they can become involved in their local government.

Participants in this year’s Citizens' Academy went behind the scenes of several city government operations, met with government officials, toured facilities, and asked questions at seven weekly sessions. The City of Gainesville’s Citizens’ Academy is proud to present its twentieth graduating class.

Recommendation

The City Commission: 1) recognize the accomplishments of the 2017 City of Gainesville Citizens' Academy graduates; and 2) hear brief comments from the class speaker on what they have learned.
