Short-term rentals and abandoned RVs are two of the topics residents ask about most.

Short-Term Rentals
Supervisor Tammy Ontiveros will discuss where things currently stand, what authority the County has, how complaints and enforcement are handled, and what residents should know when a rental property is creating an ongoing problem in their neighborhood.

Abandoned RVs and Encampments
Abandoned RVs and long-term encampments, particularly on public lands around Munds Park, continue to raise questions about safety, fire risk, sanitation, and enforcement. Ontiveros will explain who has jurisdiction, what the removal process looks like, which agencies are responsible, and what residents should do when they encounter a problem.

Spread the Bread is back, by popular demand!

Wildflower Restaurant in Flagstaff donates their day-old bread, still just as yummy, and Munds Park Community Church volunteers pick it up and bring it back for the whole community to enjoy. It was paused for a while, but it's back.

Starts tomorrow at 10am, until it runs out. Pickup is in the Fellowship Hall.

Our Dark Skies were high on the list of topics residents said they wanted to learn more about at Town Hall.

Protecting Our Night Sky

What does it actually mean to live in a Dark Sky community?

Mark Stento, Coconino County Code Enforcement Compliance Manager, will explain the outdoor lighting rules, what residents can do to help protect our night sky, and what to do when a neighbor’s lighting becomes a problem.

He’ll also clear up some of the confusion around Dark Sky requirements and answer questions from the community.

If you’ve ever wondered what is allowed, what isn’t, or who you’re supposed to call when a light is shining straight into your bedroom at 2 a.m., this one is for you.

Nearly two-thirds of the people who answered our Town Hall survey said they have never attended a Munds Park Town Hall.

Some said they didn’t know the meetings were happening.

Whaaat?

Friends. We need to talk.

For years, over a decade in fact, the Town Hall dates have been printed in The Pinewood News—even promoted on Facebook. And every single issue has a Community Calendar on Page 5.

Every. Single. Issue.

So we’re going to make this one extraordinarily difficult to miss.

MUNDS PARK TOWN HALL

Put it on the calendar. Write it on the refrigerator. Tell your neighbor.

And most of all, make the Pinewood News a habit. Simply scan the calendar on page 5 and Local Highlights on page 7, and you will be in the know.

Today we're stepping away from our usual Facebook post. We generally don’t post about anything too far outside of Munds Park, but we wanted to honor someone who felt like she belonged to everyone: Dolly Parton.

Yes, she was a singer, a movie star, a songwriter. But anyone who paid attention knew she was so much more than that. She grew up with next to nothing in the Smoky Mountains and spent the rest of her life making sure other people didn't have to go without. She gave generously, spoke about her faith openly and never forgot where she came from.

There aren't many people who can make an entire divided world stop and agree on something. Dolly could. She did it with a guitar, a wig, a wicked sense of humor, and a heart that seemed to have no bottom to it.

Rest well, Dolly. Thank you for the music, the laughter, and the example of who we should aspire to be.
