‘Tis the season. Hurricane season, that is. We were fortunate to dodge a bullet in Tropical Storm Alberto, but this year’s season is expected to be a very active one. I encourage you and your family to prepare now for this hurricane season. There is an excellent website, www.HurricaneSafety.org, with suggested lists of actions to ensure your safety.
On a happier note, Foley is one of three cities selected to participate in the Main Street program. Four of us traveled to Birmingham to make our presentation. Main Street works with community leaders to help downtowns “create long-term economic transformation through small incremental improvements one step at a time.” The goal is “to support and grow locally owned businesses, cultivate and develop entrepreneurship and create inclusive, accessible communities for all.” We are in the process of creating a board to oversee the process and move forward. Exciting times for historic downtown Foley!
