In what came as a bit of a surprise to some observers, the city council voted unanimously this week to move forward with a turf reduction program at the Municipal Golf Course that will see the facility use about 20% more water than allowed under their own ordinance passed in 2022.

For those of a certain generation, it’s almost impossible to see motorcycle officers, especially when they’re riding in tandem, and not think of the most famous duo of all – Ponch and Jon.
