Thank you to all who filled out our recent survey! We hope you will join us at this Parks & Recreation Comprehensive Plan Public Meeting that will help outline our Parks & Recreation Master Plan and will help to further develop our Comprehensive Parks System plan.
City Offices, Landfill and Recycling Center will be closed, on Thursday, July 4th, in observance of Independence Day.
Please note the below changes to regular Trash & Recycling collection:
Trash and Recycle will NOT be picked up on 7/4
Thursday Trash and Recycle for 7/4 will shift to Friday 7/5
Friday Trash and Recycle for 7/5 will shift to Saturday 7/6
While the heat advisory is just to our south, we can still expect the heat index to be around 100 this afternoon. Please stay hydrated and keep cool.
It would be appropriate to also provide info on Cooling centers for those without AC?
We all know that trees provide shade on hot days, exchanges oxygen for carbon dioxide in our air, and provides a home to a diversity of fauna; but did you know that their roots are magical underground sponges that help retain and promote the infiltration of stormwater.

And the city of Washington just lost 36 acres of them.
What a wonderful world .
Dangerous heat is upon us for the start of the week. We will be in an area of a Heat Advisory beginning tomorrow at noon, with heat index values as high as 105+. Please stay hydrated and keep cool if at all possible.
