A RESOLUTION
Honoring the Village of Canal Fulton on its Bicentennial.

       WHEREAS, The members of the Senate of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to congratulate the Village of Canal Fulton on the auspicious occasion of its Two Hundredth Anniversary; and

       WHEREAS, The Village of Milan was platted and recorded on March 23, 1814, but as a result of the construction of the Ohio and Erie Canal through Stark County, the larger Village of Fulton, renamed Canal Fulton in 1832, was laid out in 1826 on the opposite side of the Tuscarawas River from Milan and later incorporated. In 1853, Canal Fulton, West Fulton, and Milan merged into one village, and recognition of the Two Hundredth Anniversary of the original settlement is a fitting tribute to the community, for over the past two centuries, it has become known for its residents' cooperation, integrity, and willingness to work hard--exemplary qualities that are still manifested by its citizens today; and

       WHEREAS, Throughout its existence, the Village of Canal Fulton has enjoyed the benefits of a generous and civic-minded population, and those who currently make it their home take great pride in their community and its rich heritage. Their efforts have certainly made the area a pleasant and friendly place in which to live and work; and

       WHEREAS, America is only as strong as her individual communities, which are unique and which make a significant contribution to the culture of our state and nation. The Bicentennial of the Village of Canal Fulton offers its citizens the opportunity to share their memories and experiences and to reflect on the benefits of life in their close-knit community, for they have built on the best traditions of the past to ensure a future filled with hope and promise; therefore be it

       RESOLVED, That we, the members of the Senate of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, commend the Village of Canal Fulton on its Two Hundredth Anniversary and extend best wishes for peace and prosperity in the years to come; and be it further

       RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the Village of Canal Fulton.

I, Vincent L. Keeran, hereby certify that the above is a true and correct copy of Senate Resolution No. 349, adopted by the Ohio Senate, June 3, 2014.
