During the recent government meeting, various topics were discussed, highlighting community safety, event planning, and emergency preparedness.

Pam Hickey reported no updates from the public works and parks and recreation departments. However, a safety committee meeting addressed concerns about noise disturbances in the community, particularly from vehicles performing stunts in parking lots on weekends. The committee proposed increased police patrols on Friday nights and weekends to mitigate these issues.

Additionally, the meeting touched on a request from Saint Edward Church for a procession similar to last year's, which was approved. The church's application was noted to be less disruptive as it would take place within a subdivision.

Finance committee member Mark Bloom expressed gratitude for a successful pool season, attributing the positive experience to increased admission prices that attracted a more manageable crowd.

The meeting also highlighted the need for a formal disaster response plan. The mayor announced the formation of a committee to develop protocols for emergency situations, ensuring that future administrations have clear guidelines to follow. This initiative aims to address community concerns about preparedness, especially in light of recent storms.

The meeting concluded with discussions about the successful trolley hop event and preparations for the upcoming Gaslight Festival, which is expected to draw significant visitors to the area. The mayor emphasized the trolley hop's positive impact on local economic development and expressed enthusiasm for future planning meetings with parks and recreation officials.
