1. Foley City Council Approves Paving More Roadways (obawebsite.com) — Foley drivers can expect smoother trips soon as the City Council approved a paving plan that will resurface 6.3 miles of streets over the next year, starting in October. Key work includes 1.54 miles of Park Avenue plus sections of Lakeview Drive, West Peachtree Avenue, and an alley between West Orange and West Myrtle. Officials say low asphalt prices allowed them to expand the project.
2. October events at the Foley Community Library (fox10tv.com) — Foley families can look forward to two free October events at the Foley Community Library, including a Hispanic Heritage Month Fiesta on October 2 with food, crafts, and cultural performances. Later, on October 17, kids can climb on big trucks, enjoy music, a petting zoo, and treats at the Big Rigs @ the Library Touch-a-Truck event. Both gatherings are open to everyone in Foley.
