Kids walking out
Kids walking out of school in protest of gun violence and demanding stricter gun laws.

When these kids stop drinking and driving and when they walk out in protest of drinking and driving and when they demand stricter laws on alcohol sales or the ban of alcohol altogether, they will have credibility.

Cities we have visited have paved sidewalks around old trees. Saving old trees seems like a very worthwhile venture, and I would think paving around them would be cheaper than taking down the trees and repaving. City of Cape, please commit to preserving our old trees!
Walking trail
Will the Cape County Road District make parking available along Bloomfield Road now that the project is done? We taxpayers would also like to enjoy the walking trail.
