Congrats Chief. Appreciate You. cleveland.com/community/2026…

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.

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 yesterday’s public time capsule reveal. Council showed the hidden treasures to a full chamber of curious residents.

Treasures were revealed from our time capsule, buried in 1976 in City Hall’s front yard. Mayor John Petruska’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.

Of course, we took a group picture of this historical moment with all the elected officials and residents who attended yesterday’s Bicentennial Time Capsule Reveal. #bicentennial #timecapsule

The Parma Area Chamber of Commerce Rib-N-Rock is in full swing this weekend at the Shoppes of Parma. Parma Heights Mayor and I Gallo had a great time helping to kick the event off with me last night! It was a great time and the party will continue all weekend long! @park_mayor

Tomorrow is the big day when we open the time capsule that has been underground for 50 years and reveal to the public what was placed inside in 1976. Can’t wait! Saturday, June 6 at 1 p.m, Parma City Hall’s front yard #bicentennial #timecapsule cleveland.com/community/2026…
