Odds and ends

The new street is getting closer to completion. It has been basically done, but it needed the fill put along the outside of the curbs, and concrete poured around manholes. They have done so this week. The contract says they were to be done by the end of the year, so I'm guessing they may have been focusing on other work.

There are two retirement parties in the county, if you happen to know these people. Long time County Supervisor Jane Halliburton chose not to run for re-election and is done after 20 some years I think.

And Lori Morrissey, the County Emergency Services Director is retiring at the end of the year.

If you happen to know them from any dealings with the county, just a note that they will both be having retirement parties at the courthouse on December 28. From 2-4 for Jane's, and 2-5 for Lori's. Lori's I know will be in the EOC in the basement of the courthouse in Nevada.

On another note, you will soon be getting a reminder in the mail regarding the duties of homeowners and motorists during snow season. Since we may be getting snow on Friday night, just a reminder that you need your car off the street until your street is plowed. If not, you could get a parking ticket. You don't want that, and frankly, I don't want parking tickets written if we don't need to. So help the plow guys, and keep your cars off unplowed streets.
