City To Do List |
||||||
| Sometimes its just nice to have a task list to see what needs to
be done. Many of these items have been brought up to councils past,
and still not accomplished. So, we thought it would be really neat to
see if any present councilors could take any of these on and get it
done. If you have items you have brought up, and still haven't been handled, let us know and we will add them. I will continue to add as I come across my notes. |
