Monday’s Council Meetings (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As expected, life as a mom + employee + student + etc has overfilled and my Mayor’s Newsletters are going to be fading out over these last few weeks of my term! I have loved this space for sharing with you not only information about your City Council meetings, but also highlights from around town. I hope to continue writing in some capacity in the future, but for now it will primarily be for school! Thanks to the Homer Trails Alliance! Fall is my most-favorite-season, and I’ve been enjoying the
City Council: Monday, September 14 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hello and welcome to another edition of the Mayor’s Newsletter! My time is quickly winding down as Mayor, and I’m afraid my newsletters are also going to wind down in length and detail. Last month, I started a remote/hybrid and part-time four-year law program at Mitchell Hamline School of Law. It’s not feeling super part time at the moment as I settle into juggling new routines, back to school sickness through the family, and all the beautiful trappings of fall (so many raspberries to pick!) alo

Read excerpt
Hi All! I jumped on a very last-minute opportunity to camp across the Bay and hike Grace Ridge with my sister-in-law, niece, and nephew this weekend.

I am starting school at the end of August, in addition to my regular job & continued service as M

Some of us have already passed that point and are ready for a hard frost and a slower season. Either way, we will persist. I hope that wherever you are on the energy scale, you’re able to enjoy some of this amazing sunshine. We need it after all the rain! It’s been fun to see all the trail work happening on both sides of the Bay. I wish I could get out more during these
July Check-In: Planning Commission Vacancy & Voting! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hi All! It’s been a minute - I was in Maine last month visiting my family, and returned just in time for the Fourth of July. While the weather hasn’t been overly gorgeous, we make the best of it here. Sadie, Mocha, and I loved seeing everyone in the parade. Thanks to the Chamber for organizing, and to Kenny and Snooks for the parade escort and ride home in their incredible Pierce Arrow from the early-30s!<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!d
