LEDC Update

We’ve made it to the very last day of our 2019/2020 fiscal year and what a year it’s been. With our fiscal year running from October 1st to September 30th, we really only got to enjoy one quarter of it in normalcy before things starting getting crazy around January. However, as a city, we’ve done fantastic work to make it to where we are today. Not only have we economically survived these last few treacherous months, but we’ve successfully retained businesses and seized on the opportunity to grow while the rest of the world faces economic instability.

Count yourself in!

In 1990 I had the privilege of working for the United States Census Bureau as an enumerator. An enumerator is the person that knocks on your door if you haven’t yet responded to the numerous letters and postcards mailed to your address in March. Each door I knocked on in Cass County led to many questions and explanations about what the census is and how the information is used. So many people were distrusting of our government and felt the questions on the form were an invasion of privacy. That’s an ongoing issue and is no different today.

With cooler temps moving in, Linden is getting ready for Fall events. We had a great Cub Scout signup last week and a good group of 5-10-year-old kids ready to start their Scouting life. Boy Scouts are also becoming active again, so get in touch with our Scoutmaster Barry Jackson if you are interested in getting into Scouting at 903 278-2438.
