School is out, beach lovers are flocking to the Island....summer has arrived!  Thank you for allowing more time and using extra caution when navigating the streets.  The children at play, pedestrians and bicyclists appreciate it.  The Island is busy and so is Town activity.  In addition to final review of the FY15 Budget, Council will hold a public hearing on the  Comprehensive Plan. The Planning Commission will hold a public hearing next week on Zoning Ordinance amendments that would impact eating establishments in the Community Commercial District.  We hope you can attend these meetings and share your thoughts with the Town.  Meanwhile, we hope you enjoy the weather and water.  Please visit the Town's website for current news and events.
