Tuesday, September 1, City of Lincoln employees were up in a bucket truck installing small posts on the Lincoln mural on the Rio Grande building that overlooks Welcome Park. These lights will illuminate the mural at night.

On what had to be one of the hottest days this week, State Representative Sally Turner and Bill Hauter and staff sponsored and worked a shredding event at the former Kroger parking lot Tuesday. The event was free to the community and cars lined up a half hour before the scheduled start time.

As people drove up in their air conditioned cars workers unloaded and disposed of sensitive documents so personal information would not get into the wrong hands.
