Thank you to our Adopt-A-street Cleanup crew
We had a team of 13 that helped pick up litter from our two Adopt-A-Streets. The two streets are Deyerle Rd (Apperson to Brymoor) and Mud Lick Rd (Brandon to Grandin Rd Ext.). We picked up 10 bags of litter this go around.

The next one is likely in November when it is a bit cooler.
Mass zoning Updates!
On Monday August 4, 2025, Councilman Nick Hagen introduced an initiative for a study on the effects of amending or repealing the citywide zoning ordinances approved in 2024. Following discussion and debate, Nick Hagen and Peter Volosin agreed they would work together to draft amendments that give more opportunity for public input when new construction comes to neighborhoods.
