As the JoCo BOCC did last year, this year's Board once again recognized June 2 as #GunViolenceAwareness Day. I own guns. Like a majority of fellow gun owners, I support concrete, reasonable measures to reduce gun violence and keep our community safe.

If it's a Saturday, I'm usually at Meadowbrook chasing my kids around. Last weekend, we got to cut a ribbon while we were there! ✂️ It was great to celebrate a new inclusive playground in the NE corner of the park, along with a new shelter, restroom, and additional parking.

Many of the region’s leading climate advocates gathered last night for a great @ClimateActionKC event. There was a strong Overland Park delegation in attendance and it was great to hear how Commission Chair and CAKC cofounder @mikeforjoco is bringing results to Johnson County. – at Overland Park, KS

@jocogov #JoCoSOTC highlights: 1 in 4 jobs in Kansas in JoCO. Job growth but still a need for affordable housing for renters, and solutions for child care options. County taking steps but #Kansas #ksleg have to do their part.
