📰 News we're reading

• Coldwater brush pick up begins Monday (wtvbam.com) — Coldwater residents need to have their brush at the curb by 8 a.m. Monday, Oct. 5, for the city’s single-pass fall collection. Crews will only take properly stacked brush, but you can still drop off missed debris for free at the municipal compost site, while bagged yard waste pickup continues on Mondays until the first snowfall.
   

• Recent health inspections for Branch County eateries (bnd.com) — Several Coldwater restaurants, including Hungry Howies, Tasty Twist of Coldwater, Chicago Street Pub, and Mr. Gyros, were inspected between September 16 and 30, with most receiving clean reports or quick on-site corrections. Only minor issues like food residue in coolers and missing soap at a bar handwashing sink were noted and fixed during inspections. These results help you gauge how local eateries are maintaining food safety right now.
   

• Harper Creek football stays in league race with homecoming win over Coldwater (thedailyreporter.com) — Coldwater’s football team fell 38-19 at Harper Creek, dropping to 4-2 overall and 3-2 in the Interstate 8 Conference but staying in the playoff hunt.
