Transportation to the upcoming health fair on July 24 is now available for Birmingham residents, with officials urging those in need to contact the city office at (205) 254-2679 for assistance. This initiative aims to enhance community participation in health services and promote well-being among residents.

In a recent council meeting, a local resident, Anita Bolden, voiced her frustrations regarding ongoing issues with a neighboring property owned by Rusty White. Bolden highlighted concerns about overgrown lots, trespassing, and rodent infestations that have plagued her neighborhood for years. She expressed her dissatisfaction with the lack of action taken to address these problems, emphasizing that she should not have to endure such living conditions.

City officials acknowledged the challenges posed by neglected properties, noting that they are actively working on addressing these issues. The council discussed a recent list of 584 properties identified for having noxious and dangerous weeds, indicating a systematic approach to tackling property maintenance problems in Birmingham.

As the city continues to address community concerns, residents are encouraged to participate in local events and engage with city services to foster a healthier and more vibrant Birmingham.
