BY: M. of A. Bronson

        COMMEMORATING the 200th Anniversary of the Town of
        Chili, New York

  WHEREAS,  It  is  the  intent  of this Legislative Body to honor and
commemorate  the  distinguished  histories  of  the  communities   which
comprise the noble body of this great Empire State; and

  WHEREAS,  Attendant  to  such  concern,  and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this  Legislative  Body  is  justly  proud  to
commemorate the 200th Anniversary of the Town of Chili; and

  WHEREAS,   This   momentous   occasion   will  be  celebrated  at  a
Bicentennial Gala on Saturday, March 5, 2022, at the Chili Country  Club
where people can dine, dance, shop, and view local historical artifacts;
and

  WHEREAS,  Named  after  the  country  of  Chile,  the first recorded
settlement of Chili was made as early as 1792 by Joseph Morgan  and  his
family near the southeast corner of the Town; and

  WHEREAS,  Located  on  the  Genesee  River and bordering the city of
Rochester in the County of Monroe, the Town of Chili was  recognized  as
sovereign from the larger Town of Riga on February 22, 1822; and

  WHEREAS,  Rich in history, Chili was once home to the hunting ground
of Seneca Native Americans and North Chili was a stop on the Underground
Railroad; and

  WHEREAS, Remaining fruitful over the ebb  and  flow  of  decades  of
growth  and  change,  the  Town  of  Chili, under the able leadership of
Supervisor David Dunning, continues  its  commitment  to  enhancing  the
quality   of  life  of  its  citizens,  ensuring  a  positive  business,
institutional and  educational  climate,  and  providing  all  essential
services; now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED,  That  this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commemorate the 200th Anniversary  of  the  Town  of  Chili,  New  York,
recognizing  the  significance  of  the role it continues to play in the
life of the communities of the State of New York; and be it further

  RESOLVED, That a copy of this  Resolution,  suitably  engrossed,  be
transmitted to David Dunning, Supervisor, Town of Chili, New York.
