Mayor's Weekly Update - February 10, 2021
A
B
B
B
A
A
Last
week,
and
I
know
our
snow
crews
they're
out
there
snow
and
ice
control,
they're
rolling
all
the
time,
but
you
know
sometimes
that
takes
them
a
while
to
get
to
certain
streets.
It's
always
important
to
use
that
app
to
report
out
something
that
is
has
not
been
hit
yet
in
terms
of
having
the
snow
and
ice
removed.
So
sounds
like
we're
in
for
quite
a
bit
of
quite
a
bit
of
snow
coming
down
over
the
next
seven
days.
B
Yes,
so
in
ohio,
spin
out
over
3291
new
cases
and
any
new
devs
and
now
the
curfew
beginning
tomorrow
could
expire
because
now
we're
seeing
hospitalizations
gradually
declining
millionaires
in
the
united
states
and
over
around
the
states
as
well
and
then
globally
cases
and
over
105
million
cases
and
2.2
approaching
deaths
and
then
crazy
thing.
That
is
now.
B
A
A
A
coveted
19
related
death
is
one
that
is
identified
on
the
death
certificate
as
the
immediate
cause
of
death
or
listed
as
a
condition
leading
to
the
immediate
cause
of
death.
The
health
department
receives
and
reviews
all
death
certificates
for
athens
county.
However,
death
certificates
information
is
completed
by
the
attending
physician
caring
for
the
deceased.
The
health
department
is
committed
to
the
timely
upload
of
covet
19
death
statistics
after
receiving
and
verifying
verification
of
the
cause
of
death.
A
Dr
gaskell
goes
on.
We
express
our
condolences
to
those
families
and
friends
who
have
lost
their
loved
ones
due
to
covet
19.
As
do
I,
as
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
athens,
extend
my
regrets
and
condolences
to
those
who
have
lost
a
loved
one
due
to
this
unrelenting
pandemic
virus
that
we're
dealing
with.
B
B
A
A
B
A
That's
right,
who
knows
who
knows
kyle!
Thank
you.
As
usual,
it's
great
having
you
on
and
look
forward
to
seeing
you
again
next
week
for
the
next
weather
sports
and
covet
19
updates.
Yep,
see
you
next
week.
All
right,
I'm
going
to
jump
right
in
with
the
the
president's
day
is
monday
and
with
that
comes
a
delay
in
trash
and
recycling
pickup
here
in
the
city
of
athens.
A
So
keep
that
in
mind
that
that
will
be
backed
up
by
a
day
if
your
trash
and
recycling
is
typically
put
out
on
a
monday,
push
it
to
tuesday,
tuesday,
to
wednesday,
wednesday,
to
thursday
thursday
to
friday,
and
then
fridays
on
friday,
so
bear
in
mind
that,
with
that
holiday
hrc
will
not
be
on
route
on
monday
picking
up
trash.
The
other
thing
is
the
weather
advisory.
I
mean
you
just
heard
it
from
kyle.
A
We
are
expecting
snowfall
and
I
really
want
to
remind
people
to
be
cautious
and
to
be
careful
if
you
have
to
be
out
driving,
especially
if
we
have
three
inches
of
accumulation
and
ice.
You
know
ice
can
glaze
that
surface
even
cleared
surfaces,
so
our
our
snow
and
ice
control
crews
will
be
out
working
hard
through
all
of
this.
A
So
just
keep
that
in
mind.
Please
please,
please
be
careful
if
you're
out
driving
around
and
also
you
know,
get
the
alerts.
If
you
can
in
terms
of
the
county
updates
when
it
comes
to
the
weather
advisories,
when
we
go
from
a
level
one
to
a
level
two
or
possibly
again,
it's
a
a
three
level
system,
not
that
we're
anticipating
level
three
but
be
prepared.
A
Another
thing
that's
interesting,
something
that
I
was
notified
of
just
earlier
today
or
yesterday,
and
that
is
the
ohio
development
services
agency.
Dsa
is
now
distributing
over
100
million
dollars
in
federal
funding
to
help
low-income
ohioans
who
do
not
own
their
homes,
but
are
renters
to
help
them
pay,
rent
water,
sewer,
wastewater,
electric
gas,
oil
and
or
trash
removal
bills.
A
This
is
this
is
pretty
amazing
and
great
ohioans
can
apply
for
the
assistance
with
outstanding
balances
dating
back
to
march
13th
of
2020.
So
if
you
are
have
been
struggling
for
some
time
going
all
the
way
back
to
march
13th
of
2020,
you
are
eligible
for
this
or
assistance
for
future
rent
and
utility
payments
once
back
bills
have
been
made
up
and
brought
current.
