Mayor George Lantz and Villager Government Reporter Freda Miklin
On May 31, 1997, when Greenwood Village opened its then-new city hall, it sealed a time capsule and set the opening date for 2025 to coincide with the city’s 75th anniversary. On June 2, Mayor George Lantz opened the time capsule. It contained photos of the city council and key staff members, a list of all the city’s mayors to that date, a city map, the 1997 city budget, the 1991 comprehensive plan, a goals statement for the city council, and a copy of the Villager
Newspaper from May 29, 1997.
