During a recent government meeting, city officials highlighted key community events and regulations, including a reminder about construction restrictions on the upcoming federal holiday, July 4th. City Hall will be closed in observance of the holiday, and residents are advised that construction is not permitted unless a special permit has been obtained.
The meeting also celebrated Public Works Month, with the Public Works Director sharing details about a unique event held in honor of the occasion. This year’s festivities featured a pie-eating competition, which saw ten competitors from various departments vying for the prestigious golden cone award. Mayor John \"the Belt\" Crookshank emerged as the winner, showcasing his enthusiasm for pie and competitive spirit. The mayor humorously recounted the challenges he faced during the contest, including distractions from fellow competitors.
Following the mayor's report, the council moved on to the consent calendar, which was unanimously approved by all council members present. The meeting concluded with the council preparing to address public hearing matters, indicating a busy agenda ahead.
