Hey Neighbor!
As someone who grew up on military bases and as a veteran, I carry with me a deep respect for the sacrifices made by service members and their families. The red poppy is a symbol of both remembrance and resilience - which is why it's used for Poppy Month in May, a commemoration of the legacy of our veterans and reaffirms our commitment to supporting them.

City Council didn’t meet this past week, as we skip the fifth Tuesday of the month.
