• Developer for proposed Hustbourne Commons seeks to CONTINUE previously scheduled Evening Public Hearing

Free shredding event this Saturday (Sept. 26)

Most residents have been staying at home due to COVID-19 and using this time to clean house and declutter.  With that in mind, I decided to host two free shredding events.  Our contracted business, All-Shred, has committed to taking the necessary precautions to keep everyone safe by wearing masks and gloves while collecting the materials to be shredded. Your confidential documents will be shredded onsite and then taken to a recycling facility. There is no limit to the number of personal documents that you may bring; however, no businesses are allowed. Both events will be held at Hunsinger Lane Baptist Church, 3400 Summerfield Dr. The dates are: Saturday, September 26, 2020, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Saturday, November 7, 2020 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Mayor extends countywide curfew through weekend to 6:30am on Monday, September 28th

As a reminder, Mayor Fischer has imposed a county-wide curfew each night from 9 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. This curfew will extend throughout the weekend as we continue to take precautions to allow for the peaceful, lawful expression of the First Amendment while also protecting public safety.  We encourage everyone to begin heading home by 8 p.m. unless you are commuting to work, a house of worship for services, or seeking medical attention. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our city safe.
