The attendees will be on a first-call first-serve basis. If interested, please contact me to get on the list. Prior to the meeting I will contact you to let you know if you are able to attend. Don’t assume that you are in unless I confirm with you. Masks are mandatory.The virtual portion will be streamed via Facebook live which can be accessed via the city’s Facebook page or this one.As is our normal meeting structure, we will have a guest speaker which for this meeting is Mayor Richard Irvin. Our Community Oriented Police officers and I will also give updates.As mentioned in the recent 5th ward newsletter, which I hope everyone received, our normal neighborhood group meetings have been suspended until the pandemic is past us.

Help the environment by making sure your real Christmas tree is reused as mulch and isn’t taken to a landfill.
Beginning Monday, January 4, real Christmas trees will be picked up for free during weekly trash and recycling collection. For two weeks – from Monday, January 4 through Friday, January 15 – no sticker is required for collection.
To be properly recycled, trees must be free of plastic bags, all decorations and tree stands, and placed at the curb by 6 a.m. on the normal collection day. After Friday, January 15, trees left at the curb on regular collection day must be stickered in order to be collected.
Due to the wire used to form them, wreaths and garlands will not be collected as recycling and must be stickered as trash.
