2022 State of the City

We have been working hard to prepare our 2022 State of the City.  First, let me say that the state of the city is still great. We are celebrating our 10-year anniversary this year which gave us a good opportunity to reflect upon the course we’ve taken since incorporation. 

As in the past, we will be presenting a tour of the City to show what’s changing. But this year, our Mayor Pro Tem Weare Gratwick will present the tour. 

Keep your eyes open for the release of this year's video.

With another holiday season here, the City sends you its warmest wishes. May you find the true spirit of the season and may it fill your heart with joy.

Mayor Mike Mason
