                Honoring the City of Mentor-on-the-Lake
                   on its One Hundredth Anniversary.
     WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 135th    1
General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to recognize the City of Mentor-     2
on-the-Lake on its Centennial; and                                        3
     WHEREAS, This is a momentous occasion, and it provides an ideal      4
time to acknowledge the exceptional achievements of the residents of      5
the City of Mentor-on-the-Lake. These diligent people are to be           6
commended for their foresight, dedication, and selfless donations of      7
time, energy, and ability, for they have set an example of concerned      8
and responsible citizenship worthy of emulation; and                      9
     WHEREAS, Beginning as a township in the early 1920s, Mentor-on-      10
the-Lake had thirty-three voters petition to become a village and form    11
its own government in 1924, and today, it has grown into a city with      12
2,600 single-family homes, 700 apartments and condominiums, and four      13
parks within its 1.6-square-mile area. Indeed, its generous and civic-    14
minded population has enjoyed a wealth of benefits, and those who         15
currently make the area their home take great pride in their              16
community’s rich heritage. Their ongoing efforts have certainly had a     17
profound impact, and we applaud them on their commitment to the           18
continued well-being of Mentor-on-the-Lake; and                           19
     WHEREAS, America is only as strong as her individual communities,    20
which are unique and which make a significant contribution to the         21
culture of our state and nation. This anniversary of the City of          22
Mentor-on-the-Lake offers its citizens the opportunity to share their     23
memories and experiences and to reflect on the benefits of life in        24
their close-knit community, for they have built on the best traditions    25
of the past to ensure a future filled with hope and promise; therefore    26
