Any more remarks by Aldermen?
Alderman Moran
Thank you very much Mr. Mayor for having the tribute to Ukraine on Tuesday. | was unable to attend but from what | saw,
it was a wonderful event. | had many people reach out and thank you for leading that.
Mayor Donchess
Well it was very well attended and a group of Aldermen came. There were many people from Ukraine who spoke and
addressed people. They played the Ukrainian Anthem which is quite a moving piece of music actually. So overall |
thought it was very supportive of Ukraine, and its independence, and its bravery. | agree. It was a great event. Hopefully
they can sustain and prevail. Yes, Alderman Dowd.
Alderman Dowd
| believe it should be on my website if | did it right. I’m not great on Facebook but | recorded the raising of the flag and the
Ukrainian National Anthem as it was being raised and hopefully put it on my Facebook account. | think it’s there but if not,
| can send it to anyone that wants it.
Mayor Donchess
The VFW sent a delegation of people and | thought it was great to have American Veterans who clearly support and
understand what the Ukrainians are fighting for.
