This is community! The Chief of Police, Interim Fire Chief, Mayor, and City Manager didn't just hold a meeting, we made a statement. Strong communities are no accident. They're the result of leaders who are present, intentional, and committed to a purpose greater than themselves.

Never leave a child or animal in the car unattended.
A child's body temperature rises 3 to 5 times faster than an adult's. When a child is left in a vehicle, that child's temperature can rise quickly — and the situation can quickly become dangerous. 👶🌡️ ⚠️ Never leave a child alone in a car. ⚠️
