The City's Recycling Committee, in conjunction with the Beautification
Committee of Bangor 2000, has been working on scheduling events in
West Market Square for April 22, 1991 in recognition of the 21st
Anniversary of Earth Day. Councilors Saxl and Baldacci, as Council

program as well as
a tree planting program to recognize the importance

I would request that the attached Resolution be approved.
