Local businessman Speedy Lindsey explains tick reproduction and eradication methods. He warns spraying alone rarely removes all eggs and urges treatment of yards and alleys. Ticks survive months to years, with engorged females laying thousands of eggs as larvae, nymphs, and adults emerge. Dogs, birds, and humans can be hosts, with cats less prone.

A manhole cover was displaced after a sewer tap leak caused water pressure, digging and rock blockage. The fix averted widespread sewer problems for up to one fifth of the city amid widening and paving along Seagraves Road Fourth Street Fifth Street and Warren Street corridors.
