5 issues with medium priority
Street Maintenance
Sherman is finally fixing up its roads, which means you can look forward to a much smoother ride and way fewer potholes on your daily commute.
State Preemption of Local Building Codes for Learning Pods
City leaders discussed concerns that state law exempts 'learning pods' from local building, fire, and safety inspections, potentially leaving parents unaware of safety standards in these facilities.
Election
Sherman voters, get ready to hit the polls this Tuesday! A city council seat is up for grabs, and your vote will decide who represents you.
Police Investigation
Police have blocked off Taylor Street near Highway 75 for a homicide investigation, so expect some major traffic headaches if you're driving near the Splash Aquatic Center this morning. It's best to steer clear of the area entirely to avoid getting stuck in the gridlock.
Parks and Recreation
Sherman's new 6 miles of mountain bike trails are a hit, bringing in riders from all over the DFW area. It's a big win for outdoor enthusiasts looking for some new trails to explore.
