🚧 Road Work Alert: Milton Wilson & Airline Road🚧 Town contractors should wrap up paving on Milton Wilson Blvd this Wednesday and begin the road marking/striping process. Crews will then move to Airline Road to patch several spots between Memphis-Arlington and Will Harris Road. (All work is weather dependent) These roads are both key connectors in our community, so be prepared for traffic impacts during this time. Impacts will include lane shifts & traffic control measures, but no full closures. Always stay alert and use extra caution in work zones. Remember: this may be a temporary inconvenience for you, but it's a workplace for someone else. Let’s help keep everyone safe!

💧Getting Your Pool Ready for Summer?💧 Make sure you're draining it the right way! 🚫Do NOT drain pool water into the street or storm drains — it flows untreated directly into our rivers and streams, harming aquatic life. ✅DO drain it into the sanitary sewer system, where the water will be properly treated and safely reused. Let’s keep our waterways clean and healthy for everyone.
