Good morning Mr. Coldiron,
My assistant passed along the message that you are interested in looking into some business space? I have a few appointment openings this week, I don't believe she mentioned them to you.

We just got notified that one of our employees was arrested last night as a suspect in the fires. Apparently he had been using a fake name this whole time.

I don't know any more than that, but that's really freaking scary. I just wanted to see if everyone was okay / had heard?

Ms. van Eeden will no longer be working in the government, effective immediately.

In other news, a special election is scheduled for 4/1/20 in order to choose Texas Members of Congress. We will discuss this in our next series of meetings.

Yours,
Mayor Nina Clarke
Austin, Texas

I mean, we all make mistakes but this is a little embarrassing for the new flower shop, isn't it?! Not that I'm not super amused by everything!!! I mean, Max obviously got me something and it went to someone else, and he didn't forget

I think I received the gift you put together for Bunny. Are you around the Capitol today so you can pick it up and take it home to her?

good news all is that rickey's back home. injuries weren't too bad in the end, couple of bruised ribs and some puffiness more or less but by this point he ain't got much to worry about.

he can't remember much about what happened but he said it was a few guys who beat him up. two or three, he ain't sure. didn't have a car or bike or anything, they left on foot after.

everyone stay alert and keep an eye out for things.

Citizens of Austin,

Our office is pleased to announce that due to the securing of our city borders, the hard work of our soldiers to reduce zombie population, and the increased vigilance given by our APD, Austin's curfew will be moved from 7PM to 9PM. This change is effective beginning January 5, 2020.

If you have questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to our office.

Yours,
Mayor Nina Clarke
Austin, Texas

All,

Please see the attached documentation Ms. van Eeden received from Denver this morning. It details the current water grid throughout the United States as well as the need to supplement with additional resources when able. We have untapped water resources within our city limits as well as opportunities to leverage local rivers, lakes, and eventually Texas coastline.

I have indicated in yellow the section that proposes the connection between our downtown water plant and that of Tulsa's and then, in purple, the proposal regarding the spring within the Greenbelt district. If we accept the proposal to leverage the spring for city and national water supply, utility buildings will need to be built on the site marked in green, located in the center of the district. The district's borders will be shifted accordingly and compensation will be provided to the city and district. We'll lose access to a natural recreational area, though there are many more within the region that we can look to reclaim, and any citizens still living in the indicated region will need to find new housing with the assistance of government funds.

We need five votes in favor of this proposal in order to move forward. I will vote on this measure myself.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Yours,
Mayor Nina Clarke
Austin, Texas

Um, I know not a lot of people are probably even up right now... but is that the bonfire that's still going out west, or is something else on fire?

I snapped a photo of the sunrise this morning and thought maybe other people might like a reminder that there can still be beautiful things amongst the gloominess of the city right now.

so i guess this stuff was supposed to arrive last month but we finally got our shipment of vaccines at the umcb!!! make your appointments to get them and if demand is greater than supply we're def going to be restocking asap!!! definitely recommend a flu shot at the very least bc winter is coming (but not in the game of thrones kind of way) and the flu is different than your common cold, especially affecting children and the elderly. plus, we're living through a zombie apocalypse so i'm pretty sure none of us want to be that person who died from the flu...

ANYWAY!!! make your appointments and i'm looking forward to seeing you at the clinic! happy october and here's to a healthy austin <3

Thank you all for the gifts! The baked goods and pierogi are much better than the food they have here, and the sweater is very comfortable. Such a bold pattern. I have a lot to read now, too, which is really great since the books they put in the room are a little sub par. I really appreciate you all thinking of me. It was very sweet. :)

I hope you are all doing well and I will see you soon.

Thank you,
Ryan

I am so excited to share the first two interviews of the new Austin Interview Project are now live on the Freenet if you haven't seen them on your list already!! Our goal in the Department of Vital Communications, besides obviously keeping the Freenet up and running and making sure that we can communicate with each other in a vital way, is to showcase the personal stories of the people of Austin. No matter how long you have been in this city, everyone has a story to tell and a personal impact that they make on the world around us.

If you would like to sign up for an interview, just let me know!!!

OOC: You can sign up by commenting on this post or at this post in Cherry's journal.
