Proposal for Phoenix as Future General Assembly Site
1987General Resolution
VWHEREAS, it is the policy of the Unitarian Universalist Association to encourage
the Legislature of the State of Arizona to declare the third Monday in January
as a legal holiday in recognition of the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.;
and
WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of the Unitarian Universalist Association, on
short notice, withdrew the 1988 General Assembly from Phoenix; and
WHEREAS, this decision has painfully disappointed the hope of many Arizonans
who had already worked enthusiastically in anticipation of welcoming Unitarian
Universalists to their capital city in 1988;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: That the 1987 General Assembly urges the Board of
Trustees to schedule a General Assembly in Phoenix at the earliest feasible date
after the State of Arizona declares as a legal holiday the third Monday in
January in recognition of Martin Luther King, Jr.
