Community policing and personal health are among the subjects of a virtual town hall scheduled for Oct. 14.
The forum running from 6 to 7:30 p.m. is the second in a quartet of virtual town halls hosted by Sidney Mayor Cliff McNeil-Smith.
“The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has put an emotional and mental strain on everyone,” reads a statement from the Town of Sidney announcing the event titled Community Well-Being During COVID-19 Recovery. “Community and personal well-being are more important than ever.”
