ADOPTING THE
TOWN OF PRINCEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA

FROM HURRICANE FLOYD
WHEREAS, Hurricane Floyd, which struck the eastern counties of North Carolina on September 16, 1999, has resulted in an ongoing disaster of historical proportions in the Town of Princeville, North Carolina; and

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Koka Booth, Mayor of Cary, North Carolina, and on behalf of the Cary Town Council and the citizens of Cary, do hereby resolve to adopt the Town of Princeville, North Carolina, and to assure the citizens of Princeville that our community will do whatever is needed to help them in their time of need.
