 Hello and welcome to This Week in the City. Highlights brought to you from the Public Relations, Media and Marketing Department with the City of Columbia. I'm your host, Alicia Utsi. This week in the City, we want to make sure that our citizens are aware that the municipal court will be closed on September 16, 17 and 18. The courts will be closed for three days in order for judges to go through annual training sessions. Four hours will be observed for other regular business, however no court sessions will be held. Also this week on Tuesday, September 17, Columbia City Council will meet for a 2 p.m. work session and a 6 p.m. evening meeting. You can watch both the work session and the evening meeting on live stream at our website at columnsc.gov. You can also go to our website to view agenda items. And as we move through the week, please join us on Friday for the 5th annual Parking Day that will be held in downtown Columbia, including Main Street, the Vista and also at various locations at five points.
