2) Tomorrow's (Feb 25th) previously scheduled City Council meeting is cancelled. The next regular meeting will be March 10th.
3) If you would like to volunteer for Brookhaven Dog Park's spring festival (April 4th) there is a volunteer meeting, open to all, on March 1st at noon at the pavilion at Brookhaven Park. Woof woof!!
*******Some may have seen the social media posts a few weeks ago that police will be giving out warnings and then citations to those with their dog off leash in non-dog park areas of Brookhaven Park. This is now going into effect at Brookhaven Park and ALL City of Brookhaven parks. The hope is that more people will be responsible dog owners like all of us who do continue to respect the rules! Sadly there have been a few safety incidents recently. Thanks in advance for setting a good example for all that visit our parks!!
4) Langford Park (Brookhaven Heights) update: the seller agreed to allow the City to move some of the trees taken out at the new CHOA site to be planted at Langford Park. Free trees, woohoo! BHCA has been involved in the plan for their placement.
5) Brookhaven's citywide community yard sale is March 7th at Briarwood Rec Center from 9AM-noon. The event is free to attend and tables to sell items start at $20. Call 404-637-0512 to reserve your table!
