Who are we and how do we want to be known?
LEWISTON — The LA Joint Charter Commission invites all residents of Lewiston and Auburn to participate in helping to name our new city.
For the next six weeks the commission will reach out for thoughts regarding what our proud community should be called if Lewiston and Auburn become one. While the statutory and final responsibility for selecting the name rests with the Commission members, involving the community will surface the broadest range of input and help assure the best decision is made. This is a unique opportunity for everyone, including students, to weigh in on the decision.
The right name should reflect the communities’ history and heritage, express its values, project the partnering of cities, and feel right.
Name suggestions can be posted at newlacharter.ning.com/in-the-news/making-la-history. Name submissions may also be sent to ggeigercc@gmail.com or to Name, c/o Gene Geiger, PO Box 1609, Lewiston, ME 04241.
As naming ideas are received, the commission will keep the community involved; a final decision is anticipated at the commission’s June 8 meeting.
This is a never-to-be-repeated opportunity for the citizens of LA to leave their permanent mark on the history of the Twin Cities.
For more information, contact Gene Geiger, chairman, Lewiston and Auburn Joint Charter Commission, ggeigercc@gmail.com, 207-755-2240.
