Church takes on gun violence

JOLIET — A meeting to discuss ways to end gun violence will be from 1 to 3 p.m. Monday at Sacred Heart Church, 337 S. Ottawa St.

The goal of the meeting is to force action on proposals to end the violence, said Pamela Fort, community organizer.

Normal garbage pickup days

JOLIET — This week will have regularly scheduled garbage and recycling pickup. The Martin Luther King Jr. holiday on Monday will not affect Waste Management’s schedule.

In observance of the holiday, City Hall will be closed Monday.

On Monday, the parking decks will be free of charge and there will be no enforcement of the parking meters. Commuter parking lots are still subject to the daily fee.
