[00:00:01] Hey, let's talk Gillette.
[00:00:07] What's happening in Gillette? Next week on June 17th is a Gillette City Council meeting. Before we get to the agenda, let's take a look at some other City of Gillette happenings in the next week or two. You should adopt a pet Anytime is a good time to adopt a dog or cat. But now through Monday, June 16 is an extra good time because the City of Gillette Animal Shelter is running a name your own adoption fee event.
[00:00:30] That's right, over the weekend and on Monday you can set your own adoption fee just like those insurance commercials, but even better because instead of lame car insurance or whatever, you get an adorable new family member. There is still a three dollar license fee for Gillette residents. The City of Gillette Animal Shelter is open Monday through Friday from 1 to 5 and on Saturday from noon to 4. So tomorrow and Monday you set the fee. When you adopt and save a life, keep an eye out for the signs telling you when street sweepers will be coming through your neighborhood.
[00:01:02] When the street sweepers come through, please move your vehicles off the street because otherwise they can't sweep underneath your car.
[00:01:16] Next Monday June 16th at 5:30 at the Children's Memorial Garden at the intersection of Brooks and Warlow will be the annual Children's Memorial Remembrance Ceremony to remember and celebrate the lives of those taken from us too soon.
[00:01:32] There will be a table to display photos of loved ones and an opportunity to speak for those that wish to do so.
[00:01:46] And here's what's on the June 17th city council agenda.

[00:02:31] There are two items from the City Planning Commission.

This is part of the Sinclair Avenue extension project to address connectivity issues in the area by connecting the dead end on East Sinclair street to Butler Spaith. The other planning item is the Tucker subdivision which would add previously unplatted land into an existing lot on Country Club Road, and that requires the creation of a new subdivision, the Tucker Subdivision.
