Great news, District 9!

The National Wildlife Federation has made a two-year commitment, focusing specifically on flooding, water (and sewage), infrastructure, and public health to create a cleaner, healthier environment and better quality of life for us all.

Throwback to the Hooper City Neighborhood Food Giveaway. I am glad that I was able to connect with Neighborhood Association President Anthony Douglas.

It is always a pleasure to give back to residents in the community. I will continue working to move our district forward.

I had the pleasure of sponsoring a one-day Teen Summit for teens ages 15-19 at Daniel Payne Community Plaza.

I spoke explicitly about the Link Between Cuffing and Teen Violence. With the number of stories we hear about youth and violence, I used my platform to spread the word.

We are just 5 days away from the Magic City Classic. Here is a throwback of me at the last game. As the Chair of the Economic Development Committee, I am always excited that the largest HBCU event in the nation is held here in Birmingham.

As a child, I remember riding a bike and feeling free. I was able to travel and explore the area around me. A few years ago, I had the opportunity to give bikes to the kids in Hooper City.

I am thankful that I could share this same joy with our youth.

I want to give a big thank you to my team. Throughout my time as City Councilor, these young men have stood by my side. Without their help and support, I would not be where I am today. Thank you for all the countless hours in and out of the office.

It was great seeing Sheriff Mark Pettway at the @buildup high school graduation. @sheriff Pettway @sheriffsoffice has been a pillar in the Birmingham community for years and is committed to building trust between law enforcement and the community.

District 9, this pandemic is not over.

We can all do our part to protect one another. Please continue to wear your mask, wipe down your surfaces and social distance. It takes all of us to make progress.

Stay safe, D9.

Serving District 9 has been the greatest pleasure. I will never stop advocating for our district and its residents. Over the years, I have seen the progress we have made.

Let’s keep this momentum going.

I had the opportunity to speak with the young men in the @buildup Birmingham program. I instilled in them the importance of education, and the power one can hold in reading. If you put in the work, you can be a superhero.

The D9 office had the opportunity to partner with NFL Flag to bring a flag football clinic to Legion Field. I am glad that I was able to be a part of this event and assist in helping P.E. teachers understand the sport and apply the best techniques and practices in their classes.

[John Hilliard @Dist9Birmingham]

Today I want to shout out to all of the educators! On World Teachers Day, I want to recognize all the excellent teachers and school employees in District 9.

I appreciate you for educating and supporting our youth. Our district is better because of you.

I had a great time at the last @safesummrseries event in Ensley Park!

the community. For over 16 years, you have supported and helped progress your district. Your time and commitment is unmatched.

New month, new opportunities. My hope is for every resident to feel proud to call District 9 home. As your City Councilor, I strive for progress. Progress from an economic, educational, and safety standpoint.

The District 9 Office is working hard identifying problems and providing solutions for residents in the community.

I am thankful that I get to serve you, and I am excited for the future of our District.

District 9 is my home. Giving back to my community is truly a gift. My family has lived in Pratt City for more than 125 years and there is no place I would rather serve. I am listening and putting in the work to move our community forward.

Did you know that Buffalo Rock is expanding its operations in the City of Birmingham Government? The company is investing $75 million into two newly purchased properties. Additionally, this expansion will bring as many as 50 jobs to the city.
