Greetings from the Mayor of the City of Darlington!

2010 continues to be a good year for the City of Darlington.  Our Main Street is looking good with shoppers and tourists showing a small town is still a wonderful place to shop.  The Piggly Wiggly store improvement at a cost of $750,000 shows their thank you to the people who buy their groceries from them.  With the recent opening of the Dollar General Store, this also reinforces business attitudes about investing in the City of Darlington.

With summer comes increased bicycle traffic in the City from our children.  I cannot emphasize enough to please be on the lookout for these children on bikes.  Parents, please educate your children on the rules of the road.  A STOP sign means STOP.  I have personally asked Police Chief Jason King to have him and his fellow police officers watch bicyclists and to have them educate our children on the rules of the road.

With the improvements being done on several streets, thank you in part to the money from the Federal Government Stimulus Money, our water and sewer system is showing more improvement.  I know there are some inconveniences during this time, but in the long run, there will be cost savings.

I cannot say enough about Doug Lindstrom and his summer programs he has  for the youth.  With t-ball, softball and the pool, our children have an opportunity other Cities only wish they had. 

If you ever have any questions regarding the City, please feel free to call the City Office at 776-4970 or you can leave me a message at 776-4975 (Mayor's office) or 776-4247 (residence). You may also e-mail me at mayor@cityofdarlingtonwi.org.
