2021 Como Park Honor Roll recipients

In January, D10 Como Community Council accepted nominations for the 2021 Como Neighborhood Honor Roll, board members voted to select three honorees among the seven nominations, and the winners were honored at the February board meeting.
Congratulations to 2021 Honorees Rick and Kathy Zieman, Melissa Liu andDeepa Nirmal, and Tseganesh Selameab and Matthew Cain.
The Honor Roll is an annual tribute that recognizes everyday residents and organizations who make a sustained and lasting impact in their neighborhood. The city has paused its official support of the honor roll program, but it’s important that we continue to celebrate our outstanding community members, whose names will be added to the permanent plaque in the D10 office. You can see more about the 2021 honorees, as well as our record of past honorees. here: District10ComoPark.org/HonorRoll/
