News About Town: Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools (CMS) start back today after a two-week winter break. Buses will be back on the roads and children will be at bus stops. Take a moment to re-familiarize yourself with NC bus stop laws.
News Around Town: With this new year comes the census again. Census Day, April 1, 2020, is still a ways off, but Mecklenburg County is already getting the word out to make sure things go smoothly. The Census results determine valuable community resources, such as federal funding for things like healthcare, education, and transportation. Look for a letter in the mail to participate, and to learn more, visit the County’s Census website: MeckCounts2020.com.
