The Lions Club and Councilman Wes Manning (who is also a member of the Lions Club) provided a lunch of Subway Subs to the Police Department and City employees.

The LEO Club of Roosevelt High School recently recognized their LEO of the Year, Ana Aquino.The Lions Club also presented her with a scholarship to help with her college costs. We also recognized their two outstanding Leo Club Advisors, Mrs. Contrares and Mrs. Blanchard.

Public Works

By Chris Gamboa Public Works Director

Public Works Department wishes all residents and families a Happy Fourth of July. This is the time to celebrate America’s independence and share emphasis on the American tradition of political freedom and patriotism.

As we celebrate with picnics and barbecues, please also remember the courage of our forefathers who fought for our country’s freedom! Remember to use the trash receptacles to help keep our parks clean and safe for our wildlife – failure to do so may result in injury to themselves. Also, per City Code, feeding wildlife is prohibited. Google Fiber has come to Windcrest! You will continue to see signs and utility locate flags around the city. Please do not disturb the placement of the markers. The project will continue for the remainder of the summer.

This month, our Public Works team will begin doing minor repairs to alleys as materials become available. Keep our alley ways clear and clean of debris.
