The NSI would like to inform residents and visitors that a funeral service will be held at the Cathedral Basilica for Officer Triplett, who passed away in the line of duty.

Service Time: Monday, April 13 at 10:00 AM

Please be aware that Lindell Boulevard and surrounding side streets may experience temporary traffic delays and closures as police manage the procession.

🌇 Longer Days = More Foot Traffic

As daylight increases and temperatures improve, we’re seeing more pedestrians, joggers, cyclists, and families out in the neighborhood.

Real reminders:
• Drivers: Slow down in residential corridors and near parks
• Pedestrians: Use crosswalks and make eye contact before crossing
• Cyclists: Use lights at dusk — visibility drops faster than you think

Seasonal transitions change traffic patterns. Awareness keeps everyone moving safely.
