Hi Neighbors! Please join the East CAC next Monday for our monthly meeting. 5/19/2025 Lions Park Community Center 7 pm We are lucky to have Senior Engineer Sheri Smith joining us to tell us about the Pigeon House Watershed study and take your questions.

There is also time for folks to share information about things going on in our area and have a general discussion. My co-chair Mark records the meetings live on Facebook and YouTube. He keeps an eye on the chat so you can ask questions even if you aren’t physically present.

Please email me! We want as many people as possible to be […]
