Meeting Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. in the Darden House (next to city hall), the Elkins Tree Board will plan the transfer of plants from the city hall parking lot, discuss board membership and duties, and strategize upcoming tree plantings.
On Monday at 10 a.m., the Finance Committee will discuss American Rescue Plan Act funds and hear proposed FY 2021 budget adjustments.
