Ted Brown
Mayor Bill Brown presented his son, Ted, with a proclamation to honor his 25th anniversary of service in the Village. Ted started helping with parking at the MHS football games when he was 15 years old.
He continues to improve and modify traffic plans each year to make the events more efficient for motorists and participants. His involvement has allowed for fewer police officers to be assigned to event details, allowing them to remain on patrol.
From his humble beginnings at Mariemont High School to the thousands of cones, signs, and barricades placed and retrieved over the past 25 years, Ted has been honored to serve the Village he so dearly loves. You may spot him around the Village to this day, working at events or replacing signs, sometimes with his two sons. Thank you, Ted!
