City Updates - April 2024
RBHA is continuing to tracking various issues as they come before City boards and commissions. We will use this site to keep you up-to-date on topics that we believe may be of particular interest to our members. This is not meant to be an exhaustive summary of city business, but rather a more narrow focus on topics that may require tracking over time or warrant citizen engagement.
