DISCUSSION
September 16, 2010 will mark the 200th anniversary of Father Hidalgo's call (EI Grito) for
Mexico's independence from Spain.
The Fourth Street Mexican Independence Day Festivities has been a positive community
event supported by the downtown businesses and the community for the past 21 years.
Traditionally, this event has included a downtown fiesta and carnival, a parade, and an El
Grito ceremony. Since 1989, there have been various private and public organizers of
this event including the City, the former Downtown Business Association, the Business
Improvement District and other private organizations.
Given the significance of the Bicentennial, staff recommends that the City formally
organize the following 2010 celebration events and cultural activities.. an official El Grito
ceremony on September 15; a Bicentennial festival including a carnival on Fourth Street
in Downtown on September 18 and 19; a symbolic El Grito ceremony on Saturday
September 18; and a parade on Sunday, September 19. Other activities will include a
series of city -wide Mexican Independence cultural events highlighting the historical
significance of the El Grito Bicentennial. The City's sponsorship and management of this
event will ensure maximum civic involvement and a minimal adverse impact on public
resources.
