National Public Works Week Proclamation

During Wednesday night's meeting, Mayor Conyac read a proclamation declaring National Public Works Week as May 19-25, 2024. Since 1960, the American Public Works Association (APWA) has sponsored National Public Works Week as a public education campaign to call attention to the importance of public works in community life.

The 2024 theme of National Public Works Week, "Advancing Quality of Life for All," shines a spotlight on how public works professionals advance our quality of life and often do so behind the scenes without much recognition. Here at Firestone, the Public Works employees are at the heart of our community, and we are continually grateful for the great work they do! 

Firestone Board Recognizes Scholarship Recipients 

During the Board of Trustees meeting, the Board of Trustees and Mrs. Betty Heath recognized two students from Firestone for the George E. Heath Community Scholarship: Josh Goodrich and Lorna Heil. Both students will receive $1,250 to go towards educational expenses this fall.

Both of these students, who are graduating soon, have demonstrated their academic excellence, showed involvement in many extracurricular activities, stayed involved with community service hours, and even had time to hold part-time jobs.

Congratulations to Josh, Lorna, and all the graduates living in Firestone!
