Happy Halloween from the City of Mustang's Finance Department!
Halloween is an evening where many families enjoy time together going door to door and walking through their neighborhoods. For years now children have made wonderful memories scaring friends and digging through piles of candy they received. In order to make this Halloween another fun memory, it is important that everyone plan for the weather and prepare to remain safe as they walk through their neighborhoods, especially as the sunlight disappears. It is always a good idea to include reflective material within the clothing/costumes your children wear, and it is important to have flashlights illuminated as you walk.
It is important to know that October is National Pedestrian Safety Month. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), a much greater percentage of pedestrian fatalities occur during nighttime (78%) compared to daylight hours (19%) and dusk/dawn (4%). Please pay attention to your surroundings, and watch for traffic in all directions, as you take your family for an evening of fun.
Just 45 years from now on this date in 2069 at 6 PM, the time capsule that was buried in 2019 in front of Town Center when the City of Mustang celebrated its 50th Birthday will be opened. Who plans to be there?

Happy Labor Day
All City offices - including all of Town Center - will be closed on Monday, September 2, 2024 in observance of the Labor Day holiday. The Aquatics Center will be open for its last day of the season from 1 PM to 6 PM. Refuse service will run as normally scheduled so be sure to have your polycarts to the curb by 7:00 AM.
This afternoon, a retirement reception was held for Ms.Jill Heck, Animal Welfare Supervisor. Jill - originally hired in 2012 - at one time served as the City's only Animal Welfare Officer. Over the course of the next 12 years (give or take a few) Jill helped grow the department l, grow the facility, and cared for hundreds of animals, fostering many, and finding homes for a majority of them. She will be missed but has certainly earned this time to relax with a new grandchild.
If you ever adopted an animal from the Mustang Animal Welfare Center, we invite you to share a photo of them to help create a beautiful memory book for Jill.
Pictured with Jill is Police Chief Mike Wallace.
