Thank you DG!

Yesterday’s vote totals are clear & compelling.

Congratulations to Leslie Sadowski-Fugitt, Martin Tully & Mike Davenport.

VoDG folks … an important reminder: Plowing is made way more difficult and slower (and more dangerous) when we have to work around parked cars. Please make every effort to keep your vehicles off the street.

[Bob Barnett @rtbarnett]

VoDG folks:

Next Monday (16.23). Talk with family, co-workers & friends about what the memory of Dr. King means to you. Look up one of Dr. King's speeches & completely. Think about how far we've come & look for opportunities to improve.

Remember. Do good. Serve.

The NWS says dangerous heat & humidity will continue through midweek with heat index values over 100°. Heat-related illnesses may develop in less than 30min after strenuous outdoor activity.
Keep an eye on neighbors and pets-check on anyone that might be struggling/risk.
