This Week in YOUR Government

As summer and the June 3rd Election stare us down, our citizens’ government is in full swing with deliberations over many issues.  Yes, this week is a little light on commissions, but there are several other events to round out your week.

Most importantly, join us on Wednesday, April 30th from 7pm to 9:30pm in Community Chambers (behind City Hall on Russell Blvd) for the second full City Council candidates’ forum hosted by the Yolano Chapter of the Sierra Club and the Davis Neighborhood Coalition.

After the jump, all the deets on how to be a better citizen: just show up at a meeting!
