On June 20, a groundbreaking ceremony was held for the Decatur Rome senior apartments, which will provide approximately 276 affordable housing units for low-income seniors. The project aims to address the growing need for accessible housing options in the community. Ovation, the organization managing the apartments, plans to open a waiting list interest form later this year, with the apartments expected to be available next year.

In addition to the housing initiative, community engagement events were highlighted. Residents are invited to join the monthly Boca Titos gathering, where they can enjoy coffee and pastries while connecting with neighbors. A blood drive is also scheduled at the northwest area command, responding to critically low blood supplies in the valley.

For those interested in small business development, a free breakfast event will take place at the Centennial Hills Active Adult Center on August 14, featuring speakers from the local business community, including Dean Nabsky and Sarah Johnson from the lieutenant governor's small business advocacy office.

The meeting concluded with a call for community feedback, encouraging residents to reach out via phone or email. The speaker expressed gratitude to local law enforcement, first responders, and city management for their ongoing support and service to the community.
