Recommended Action
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council recognize businesses that have been providing services to the community for a number of years.
Body
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The cost of the plaques and certificates is approximately $650.
BACKGROUND:
In 1993, the City Council created an awards program to recognize those longstanding businesses that have been providing services to our community for many years.
Every year the City recognizes businesses that have achieved 10, 20 and 40 years of continuous service milestones. The milestones are calculated based on the date the business was first licensed in Manhattan Beach and may not necessarily reflect the entire length of time the business has been operating. Plaques are awarded to businesses that have served the community continuously for 40 years. Special proclamations are presented to businesses with 20 years, while certificates are mailed to businesses with 10 years.
City Council has recognized the following awards in the past:
