Quick news bites

Pride flag goes missing, is recovered

There was a little kerfuffle about Havoc’s Pride bandana last night. It was reported missing in the evening after being present all day until at least 2pm. It was found and replaced on Havoc.

There’s a public listening session coming up next Wednesday on the Vine Brook Watershed and Urban Heat Island Assessment. (Say that three times fast!)

This project’s objectives were to find nature-based solutions to mitigate the flooding and subsequent damage due to urban flooding. Read more in the attached flyer.
