About the boards...

A peaceful gathering is planned to be held on the Butler square this week and fully understanding the sensitivity of our current situation, some business owners have elected to take preventive measures which are seen here.

Based on feedback from those organizing the event, we’ve been assured this will be a brief and peaceful gathering. 

Local law enforcement is fully aware of the situation and have planned accordingly, there is no need for panic.
