Mark Your Calendar
Dear 5th District residents:
After ten years of holding First Friday meetings at the Newark Senior Center, I feel the need to do something new. I am looking at replacing the morning meetings with several night forums focused on specific county issues. When the schedule is decided, I will be sure to notify you. Many thanks to those of you who participated over the years, and I hope to see more of you at the meetings in this revised format.
All the best,
Councilwoman Lisa Diller
