One year ago today, the current members of the Park Ridge City Council were sworn into office.
To commemorate this momentous occasion, the PRU Crew has put together a slide show of the pictures of the Mayor and City Council that we've posted since beginning our blog.
Enjoy!

Pru, thanks for the laugh. Some of those are very good. Gee, has it been a year already?
Howie the Purple Pimp! Priceless!
That is some whacky stuff...! Thank you for the chuckles today.
hey PRU, look into how well the air quality issue is going at the public works building
love the quote of Howie from May 07. He was SO EXCITED about the future of PR. Too bad he never goes North of the tracks on Busse.
You're the mayor of the WHOLE city, sir. Not just the parts where the sleazebags who grease your pockets are.
