It’s been a year since “Meatball” the bear created a legion of fans over the course of several trash foraging forays into Glendale’s hillsides.

Reaction to a proposal to feature the bear’s likeness on the city’s next Rose Parade float was...enthusiastic.

The Glendale City Council will review the concept at their regular meeting today at 6 p.m.
