SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND Alm JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
1 . Incorporate a commemmorative tree planting into the ceremony
planned for the A. F. Bray Courts Building Time Capsule and
Plaque dedication on September 29, 1987 as part of the
County recognition of the Bicentennial Constitution
Celebration.
2. Express appreciation to the Acalanes Chapter of the
National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution.
BACKGROUND
The Board, on June 16, 1987, referred to the Office of the County
Administrator a letter from Elizabeth B. Zilen, Regent, Acalanes
Chapter, National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution.
The Society requested that the Board consider planting a tree in
a County park in recognition of the Bicentennial Celebration of
the Constitution. The Board has already planned the placing of a
50-year time capsule as part of the dedication of the new A. F.
Bray Courts Building as the recognition and celebration of the
Constitution Bicentennial on September 29, 1987 . The addition of
a commemorative tree planting to that same celebration would be
an excellent living symbol of the Constitution which forms the
basic foundation of the American system.
The Daughters of the American Revolution are to be commended for
their efforts in coordinating and publicizing the important
commemorative occasion of the Constitution Bicentennial.
