In a recent government meeting, officials highlighted community engagement and upcoming local events, showcasing the city's commitment to resident concerns and cultural activities.
City officials expressed gratitude for the successful re-striping of Berkeley Circle, which has garnered positive feedback from residents on social media. The swift response to community concerns was acknowledged, with hopes that this experience will inform future street projects.
Additionally, the meeting featured discussions on two major fall events hosted at the local museum. The Stonewall Pumpkin Festival, scheduled for October 12, promises family-friendly activities, including games and pumpkin carving, culminating in a festive lighting ceremony. Tickets are priced at $5 for members and $10 for non-members, aimed at covering event costs.
The second event, a masquerade ball on October 19, invites attendees to don masks and vintage attire for an evening of entertainment from 7 PM to 11 PM. Both events are anticipated to foster community spirit and engagement.
Furthermore, Mrs. Neubauer reported on the success of the Vintage Bike Show held at Van Housen Farm, which attracted a large turnout and raised funds for local survivors. The event was supported by local sponsors and featured contributions from the Oakland County Sheriffs and Fire departments, emphasizing the community's collaborative efforts.
These discussions reflect the city's ongoing initiatives to enhance community involvement and celebrate local culture through engaging events.
