Council Subcommittee Updates
The council maintains five standing subcommittees on which different Councillors serve, in addition to a Committee of the Whole, which meet as needed to discuss business outside of the regular bi-weekly Council meetings.
I serve on OLLA, PHS&E, and C&ED, as well as the Committee of the Whole with all other Councillors. As a member of those committees I have "voting rights" and count towards the quorum. More information about subcommittee assignments can be found here, on the city's website.

Topic: Discussing the City Seal Task Force Report.

Upcoming Events & Activities
Mack Park Farm Festival:
The 3rd annual Mack Park Farm Festival is happening on Sunday, 8/9 from 3-7pm.
There will be lots of food, drinks, music (featuring the Mack Park Players!), and family-friendly activities.
Admission is free, but donations and proceeds from merchandise sales will go towards supporting the Farm's mission to grow healthy food for the community. Folks can preregister on Eventbrite to help approximate headcount for food.

I have weekly office hours at Konna Café and Things (130 North St.) every Tuesday morning from 9am-Noon. Please feel welcome to stop in and say hello! You'll know I'm there by the bike parked out front!
