Private donors paid for the sign, no public funds were used.

Councilmen Garry Bredefeld who spearheaded the effort to have the motto put on the wall said " I respect that, some people don't want to have the motto in the chambers, felt it was divisive, I don't share that view; I think it's actually a unifying message. It's about faith values and patriotism. That's what our community's about; and that's what this reflects

Six private donors paid for the sign that cost almost two thousand dollars.

Thank you for this information! I am so encouraged after the non stop bad news. God in Fresno, I always knew it! and now they have publicly declared it, God bless Bredfeld for his boldness.
