Whereas, the community of Grapevine has a long and colorful
history reflecting much of the strength and historical de-
velopment or Tarrant County and North Central Texas; and
Whereas, members of many pioneer families who have lived
through and contributed toward the development of the com-
munity are possessed of memorabilia, pictures, books and man-
uscripts which reflect and give color to such history; and
Whereas, there is no official archive where such historical
objects and manuscripts could be kept to insure safekeeping
and availability for study by present clay scholors and future
generations; and

to contribute such historical material to a community archive
if one were established;
Therefore , the City Council of the City of Grapevine , Texas
does hereby designate the Grapevine Public Library as the
official archive for the preservation of materials pertain-
ing to community history and do hereby authorize and direct
the City Librarian to accept such historical materials as may
be contributed through the years , to organize and preserve
the same and to make such materials avail able ior study and
research to all serious students of community history; and

lish this notice in one or more newspapers in general circu-
lation in the community and to invite all community residents
