Mayor Tim Keller and City leaders will host a Bilingual Telephone Town Hall on October 21st .

The town hall, which will be available to participants in both English and Spanish, will allow residents to ask questions over the telephone, learn more about the City’s response to the coronavirus, and get updates about City services and resources.
