Citywide Yard Sale and Big Bang Cancelled

For the Safety of our City, we are cancelling the Citywide Yard Sale and the Big Bang that we had scheduled for this year.  The City is asking that until the mandatory self-isolation is lifted from the Federal Government, that no one in the City have a yard sale on their own.  We are constantly monitoring the advice from the Federal Government and the CDC and we will be keeping the public informed on our website as information becomes available to us.  The Mayor, Council and Administration thanks everyone for their cooperation  during this pandemic.
