San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan speaks at Happy Hollow Park and Zoo for the 10th anniversary of the Senior Safari walks on Thursday, May 23, 2024. Once upon a time in San Jose, the annual State of the City event was a fairly passive affair. You’d sit back and listen to a boosterish address from the mayor and see councilmembers give out a handful of community awards. There was no audience participation required beyond the expected applause.
Jon Cicirelli, director of Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Services, said it’s really helpful to get the community more involved in the State of the City event, especially centered around big open space like Kelley Park, where park department staff have plenty of upkeep to do.
