Hi Donna, I'm following up again to see if you can assist with getting someone to sign this worksite agreement. In other communities we have someone in the Mayor's office sign, but we've also had department leaders sign.The departments we have participating this year are the animal shelter, parks maintenance, and stormwater. I appreciate any guidance you can provide.
