**FYI**
Drainage is currently going into the 600 block of Lockerbie. The board members are monitoring the situation and we're looking forward to no longer having lakes on Lockerbie Street. It is purportedly a 3 day job and bricks at the alley aprons are being saved and will be put back in the alleys at the completion of the job. Please direct any questions you may have to the board at lockerbieneighborhood@gmail.com.
Please remember to wear a face mask starting July 9th when inside public buildings and/or unable to maintain adequate social distancing outdoors. For more information please click here and if you need a face mask please click here.
Stay current on any cancellations or postponements by looking at the calendar below and stay up to date on helpful community resources by navigating to the menu above.
