We talked about ways to make our city safer and how to keep important services running.

People all over the country loved our dog park. We worked on bringing ambulance drivers back into City employment. 

We kept practicing to be ready for any big emergencies. We made our streets and parks better and got to know more people in our neighborhoods. And we helped more people find housing.

Thousands of volunteers helped make our community a nicer place. And, of course, we played softball and planted more trees. We helped young people get ready for the future and worked on keeping our streams and streets clean.
