Vice‑Mayor Cothran announced the city's July holiday celebration and discussed vendor interest, including a pony‑ride vendor proposed at $7 per child; other community events and a library calendar were also shared.
Public Works Director Grant told the Board the South Park project is nearly complete and crews will move to North Park next week to prepare for the city's Independence Day celebration, which Vice‑Mayor Cothran said will be held the first Saturday in July.
