This is all made possible by an agreement with Amazon! In April, Amazon announced an agreement to use ULA‘s next generation Vulcan Rocket. There will be 38 launches to deploy Amazon’s Kuiper broadband satellites, starting in 2024! @CityofDecaturAL @ulalaunch

Decatur is a positively caring community! Decatur Fire & Rescue, Decatur Police Department, and Beltline Church of Christ helped 60 children who had been displaced from their building in the middle of a sweltering day. #PositivelyDecatur #DecaturAL bit.ly/3b1fhyE

FYI from @DecaturAnimalSv! Due to building maintenance, visitors will need to make an appointment starting today through June 6 to visit with shelter animals.
As #InfantFormulaShortage continues, Alabama pediatricians advise against diluting formula, which can result in dehydration, weight loss and seizures. Families shouldn’t make their own formula, use cow’s milk or give babies plant-based milk. #NewsRelease: go.usa.gov/xu6N8

While changing tires isn't in Ofc. Ivey's job description, he was happy to do it to help a citizen in need. Ivey not only helped change the tire, but also showed the young man how to do it so he would be prepared if it happened again in the future. Great work!
