With city offices closed for Labor Day, the council used the Monday morning briefing to highlight community priorities as students return to school. Tartan High School, where the meeting was held, recently completed a major addition and renovation project. The council extended good wishes to all students, teachers, and staff for a successful academic year.

Safety is a key concern as school resumes. The council reminded drivers to slow down and pay close attention in school zones and residential neighborhoods, where children and school buses will be present. Drivers are urged to anticipate the movement of students and buses to prevent accidents during the busy school commute.

The council also provided an update on the Hadley Avenue pavement rehabilitation project, which stretches from 10th Street to Hallmark. The project is currently underway and is expected to be completed by mid-September. Drivers should be aware that traffic signals at the intersection of Hadley Avenue and 15th Street will remain flashing red during construction, and drivers must treat these signals as stop signs. Partial lane closures are possible, with flaggers on site to direct traffic. Motorists are advised to exercise caution in the work zone.

City offices will reopen Tuesday, September 3rd at 8 a.m.
