From the Desk of the Village Manager
For the shortest month of the year, we've got a lot of celebrating to do in February, as we mark the official grand opening of two significant Village projects: Thalatta Estate, a picturesque waterfront park that we've renovated as a premier event facility; and our new Platinum LEED-Certified Municipal Center. The public is invited to join us for both big events. Please see details below. February is also the month during which we proceed with new tree planning consistent with our Tree City, USA designation and the Village's Tree Master Plan. We also have Public Works staff out replacing and repairing sidewalks, and Parks workers out manicuring our greatest assets -- our public green spaces, playing fields, and exercise paths. February is also Black History Month, an annual celebration of achievements by black Americans and a time for recognizing the central role of African Americans in U.S. history.
We anticipate an exciting month and we hope you will join us in celebrating all our community achievements, big and small.
