Let the 2022 SquareCrows begin on the Public Square

By Ellen Zornes

SquareCrows are on as usual for fall 2022! We are just now announcing as we were on hold to make sure we could use the historic courthouse lawn - and we can!!

So, you know the drill . . . email your phone number to coladair@duo-county.com and I'll call to get you registered and assign your Square spot.

Remember they can go up October 1, but must be down November 1 so the work on the historic courthouse can begin. Can't wait to see 'em!!

USDA Grant will be used for in-vehicle cameras and computers

From the Office of Columbia Mayor Pamela Hoots:

The City of Columbia has received notification of approval for a United States Department of Agriculture Community Facilities grant to provide in-vehicle cameras and computers for the Columbia City Police Department.

"We are pleased to be selected for this grant," said Mayor Hoots. "It will be utilized by the local police to continue their commitment to the community."
