As previously reported, the city had planned to present a key to the city to Liza Minnelli to welcome her to the city. Mayor Nicholas Mavodones was scheduled to present the honorary key to the iconic musician on the front steps of the city hall late this afternoon. However, the event had to be rescheduled because Ms. Minnelli was delayed in New York City surrounding the launch of her new CD and combined with inclement weather there.

Rather, the Mayor will officially welcome Ms. Minnelli at the beginning of her performance at Merrill Auditorium, Wednesday, September 29th at 7:30 pm.
