Community opens cooling centers amid extreme heat wave

During a recent government meeting, officials highlighted the ongoing efforts to support community members during extreme heat conditions. The local recreation centers are being utilized as cooling centers, providing a refuge for individuals without air conditioning. Announcements regarding the availability of these cooling centers will be disseminated through local communication channels.

Additionally, the county has secured $15,000 in grant funding aimed at enhancing the indoor adaptive play program. This initiative, which takes place on Saturday mornings at the Community Recreation Center (CRC), offers a free indoor playground experience for younger children with special needs. The program utilizes the multipurpose room, typically reserved for senior activities during the week.

Furthermore, updates were provided on the Leadership Morgan Hill project, which has received approval from the board of supervisors and is currently in progress at the Community Center. The meeting underscored the commitment of local officials to foster inclusive recreational opportunities and ensure community well-being during challenging weather conditions.
