PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, the Fort Collins community continues to grow along with the need to recognize
our community assets; and
WHEREAS, these assets lie within each and every one of us, especially within our local
businesses; and
WHEREAS, buying locally helps to support our friends and neighbors, who both own and
work far local businesses, keeping our money circulating within the community instead of sending it
away to the benefit of another community; and
WHEREAS, the citizens of Fort Collins enjoy having a vital shopping and business
community and having a comfortable, clean place to spend time; and
WHEREAS, since we have recently lost locally owned businesses there is an immediate need
for action and recognition.
• NOW, THEREFORE, I, Ray Martinez, Mayor of the City of Fort Collins, do hereby
proclaim Monday, May I as
LOCAL BUSINESS DAY
in the city of Fort Collins and urge citizens to make a conscious effort to think before they spend.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and the seal of the City of Fort
Collins this 18th day of April, A.D. 2000.
