The Latest from Doug

 

I want to thank everyone for being involved in our community throughout the summer. The City and many of our local businesses had several successful events thanks to you and staying local. I want to thank the Cool Spring Downtown District for all the hard work they have put into always supporting our wonderful City. 

 

Soon, our local schools will be starting back up providing an opportunity for our youth to become educated. As we make our way through the election season, there will also be ample opportunities for all of us to become educated on issues facing the City. You will have the ability to influence the direction of Fayetteville through our democratic process and I encourage everyone to participate. 

 

Our City Council work sessions and meetings start again on Monday, and I look forward to seeing you there. Your voice directly shapes Fayetteville and speaking opportunities at the Regular Council Meetings empowers you as an active citizen. I can say with confidence, everyone wants to make Fayetteville the best place to work, live and recreate. That takes a little bit of effort from all of us! 

 

Soon the temperatures will start to cool, and we will have add a layer of clothing to enjoy all that Fayetteville has to offer. I look forward to seeing each of you at our meetings and throughout our beautiful community! 


Best regards,

Doug
