The City website is currently under reconstruction and refreshing. For the past several years the website management was outsourced. Recently the City regained control of the website and the Mayor’s office will be managing it going forward. We realize that there is much updating that needs to be done and that is now in process. Please bear with us as we work through this long needed process. The end result will be something of which we can all be proud.
