Honoring the City of Loveland on its One Hundred Fiftieth Anniversary.
WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to pay tribute to the City of Loveland on its Sesquicentennial; and
WHEREAS, Over the past one hundred fifty years, the City of Loveland has experienced dramatic growth and change, and yet, commendably, it still radiates vitality, optimism, and a charm all its own. First settled in 1795 by Colonel Thomas Paxton, the territory that would become Loveland was formally incorporated as a village on May 16, 1876, and in the decades since, it has been the beloved home to many. Earning the sobriquet of "the Sweetheart of Ohio," this unique community certainly has just cause for celebration; and
WHEREAS, Even as they have exuberantly embraced the promise of a bright future, the residents of Loveland have never relinquished their appreciation for the worthiest virtues of the past. Indeed, they have managed to nurture a fresh perspective and a positive outlook that continue to endear this distinctive city to all who know it well; and
WHEREAS, Every state depends upon such vibrant, durable communities as Loveland for its own survival and stability. Although having known adversity and tribulation, it also has been favored with its share of blessings, and in the years to come, the municipality is sure to remain on its admirable course and to continue to transform challenges into opportunities; therefore be it
RESOLVED, That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, congratulate the City of Loveland as it commemorates its One Hundred Fiftieth Anniversary and offer our best wishes for its perennial good fortune; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the City of Loveland.
