Give your input on the proposed Sports Court Project at City Hall Park
The City Council has expressed its desire to build a sports court at City Hall Park, and they want to hear from residents. Once completed, there will be two pickleball courts on the north side of City Hall. In addition, this project will include refurbishing the southside basketball courts and transforming them into one updated basketball court with some additional parking spaces.
Residents are encouraged to attend the Tuesday, December 10th City Council meeting to share their thoughts on the project. The meeting starts at 7:00 pm, so we hope to see you there. Working together, we can make this a great project!

City Manager Report – December 20, 2024
As the weather changes, we want to remind you to protect your house and yourself before cold weather hits. To help you prepare, here are some suggested informational tips:
Buy your snow shovel now.
Keep water and canned food on hand, just in case.
Clean your gutters and downspouts now.
Replace the filter in your furnace.
Have your chimneys and wood stoves cleaned.
Know the City’s snowplow route. If you click the link, you will see the City has divided the streets into three priority levels. Due to limited resources, in a heavy snow event, you can expect the First Priority Route to be maintained. The second Priority Route will be addressed as resources allow with priority over the third route. The third Priority Route will be managed as resources allow.
