⏰ Are you ready for an extra hour of sleep, Wendell? Set those clocks back this Sunday, November 1, by one hour as Daylight Saving Time ends.

Remember, that’s technically Halloween night. Many device clocks are automatic these days, but for those analog and appliance clocks, make sure they are set back.

🚨 October 28 is National First Responders Day, as proclaimed by Mayor Gray!

Today, we pause and give thanks to the many sacrifices first responders across our nation make daily.

Whether it's responding to a house fire, routing calls at dispatch, patrolling Wendell and responding to calls for service, saving lives in the back of an ambulance, or plowing roads in a snowstorm for emergency responses to continue - we are proud of ALL of the first responders who serve you in Wendell.

Join us in thanking them today and always.

🍂 Not much longer, Wendell, and we'll be out picking up leaves at the curbside!

We will be picking up starting the week of November 9 (excluding Veterans Day) and again the week of November 16. You can also continue using your yard waste can.

‼️ ONLY leaves in piles. Make sure to keep piles out of the roadway and away from storm drains as well, they could block up the stormwater system. Keep piles away from parked cars and mailboxes too!
