The city has designated several locations, including City Hall, Buster Brown Community Center, and fire stations one through seven, as cooling stations to provide relief from extreme heat.

The National Night Out event is scheduled for Tuesday, August 4th, 2026, at Shelby Park from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., featuring entertainment, back-to-school giveaways, and vendors to encourage community connection with public safety.
Airport Fuel Farm Rehabilitation Project to Proceed with RFP
The council approved a request to put out a request for proposal (RFP) for the fuel farm rehabilitation project at the airport. The project is estimated to cost $250,000 to $260,000 and is necessary because many components are rusted out, affecting fuel delivery efficiency. The project is included in the current budget.
City Council Approves Budget Amendments for Parks and Recreation and Planning, and Authorizes Utility Billing Adjustments
The council considered and approved a budget amendment for the Parks and Recreation Department to cover golf course supplies, increasing the budget by $5,000. This increase is due to a higher number of tournaments, increased traffic, and the operation of a snack shop at the golf course. The amendment involves moving funds from one budget code to another to accommodate these expenses. Additionally, a budget amendment for the planning department was approved to reallocate funds for office furniture and a new conference room. Utility billing adjustments were also approved based on plumbers' receipts, and accounts payable claims totaling $1,087,040.15 were approved for payment.
