Time: 9:10 p.m. City of Iona State of the City Address By: Craig Rockwood — Mayor January 15, 2003 Once again I have the unique opportunity to take a few minutes of time and report on the State of the City. Our City, Iona, is not a large city by any means but it is a wonderful community and I, and I know you also, are proud to call Iona home. Our community was founded in the late 1800's and the early 1900's upon traditional principles. Principles such as hard work, respect for family, friends and neighbors, love and concern for the welfare of everyone living in the area and a definite sense of community. It is these principles and traditions that we as community leaders strive to preserve, to build upon and strengthen, that they might continue to be the foundation of our community for many generations to come. It is a pleasure and I thank you for the opportunity to serve as the Mayor of this community. I know that I speak for everyone sitting around this table in expressing gratitude for the opportunity to serve. On behalf of the entire community I would like to express a heartfelt thanks to all those who have been elected to serve on our City Council, to our City Clerk, our City Treasurer, our Chief of Police, and to all of the community members who have donated their time, talents, and resources to make the Iona Community a better place for us all to live. While public service can be one of the most gratifying aspects of our lives it does not always come without conflict. The sacrifice of time and talents is not always easy to make. The lack of resources and occasional personality conflicts can be discouraging, but in the end it is this spirit of community service that makes Iona the special place that it is. As community leaders it is this spirit of sacrifice and giving that we must foster and encourage among our citizens. Without it we would only be another dot and a name on a map. To build on the foundation that supports this community we must work continually to preserve and make things better. Who of us could buy a car today and expect that car to provide economical and reliable transportation for the next 50 years? It is not practical, things wear out. Streets and sidewalks wear out. Water lines, pumps and tanks wear out. Buildings and equipment wear out. As a community we need to continually be repairing, replacing, and updating streets, water lines, buildings, equipment, and the other infrastructure in our city. Can we do everything that needs to be done? No, there aren't enough funds and other resources to do it all or even keep up, therefore we must continue to plan, to evaluate, and to prioritize and move forward the best we can. I want the people of this community to feel that we have done a great job with the resources we have had to work with, and I think they do. The Main Street beautification project completed last summer was a big step forward. The improvements to our park over the last few years have not only helped to beautify our park, but have also provide additional recreational opportunities for the members of our community. I hope this spirit of beautification grows throughout our neighborhoods. I hope our citizens clean up and beautify their properties and homes. I hope they help their neighbors do the same. It is the responsibility of those living in this community to maintain and preserve the entire community and not to expect that that responsibility lie only with the few that have been elected to lead. In my opinion the most important acts preformed in this community are not the patching of potholes, or the replacement of water lines, or the construction of a new sidewalk. The most important acts are the innumerable acts of kindness and generosity - preformed daily by the members of this community. That friendship, kindness, and support are important in all of our lives. As community leaders we will continue to make decisions that we feel will have a positive influence on our community. It is my hope and prayer that the people living in this community will continue to make Iona the special place that it is. Thank you!
