Camp Taylor Monument Event

On Sunday, September 20, I was able to celebrate the placement of the historic Naturalization Tree Monument in Camp Taylor Park with the Camp Taylor Neighborhood and the Daughters of the American Revolution.  

 

Since its placement in 1921, the neighborhood grew up around the monument cutting it off from public view.  At it's new location it will be accessible to all.  In the near future, a sign with the history of the monument will be installed to reference its original location.

 

The Sons of the American Revolution Color Guard participated and posted the colors and added much pageantry to this event.

Street Sweeping

Street sweeping will occur in a portion of District 10 as outlined in the map below for the week of October 5. Street cleaning signs are posted prior to 5 p.m. on the business day before sweeping occurs. They alert residents that there is No Parking between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. on sweeping day.  Vehicles parked in No Parking areas are subject to citation and/or towing. Residents should not park in affected areas until after 5 p.m. even if it appears an area has been swept, as sweepers may return before that time. The No Parking zone covers both sides of the street, though signs may only be posted on one side.
