In 1976, many cities buried time capsules. Ours had to be opened for Parmaโ€™s bicentennial this year. Fellow mayors, investigate your capsule burial site before a public event. Glad we did. Ours was a complicated, messy excavation. Contents on display now in our City Hall lobby.

Treasures were revealed from our time capsule, buried in 1976 in City Hallโ€™s front yard. Mayor John Petruskaโ€™s administration anticipated my administration would open the capsule for our bicentennial. We met those expectations and will give these items to our historical society.

Last week, we learned our time capsule was difficult to access and its contents damaged from moisture and mold. Despite these setbacks, we salvaged many items for yesterdayโ€™s public time capsule reveal. Council showed the hidden treasures to a full chamber of curious residents.

Council and I were honored to see Mayor Gerald Boldt, his wife Jean and his adult children at the Bicentennial Time Capsule Reveal yesterday. Mayor Boldt was a Ward 6 Councilman (1971-1993) and the 12th mayor of Parma (1994-2003). He witnessed the time capsule burial in 1976.
