She talks about the new sewer system due for completion by July of 2025.

Siobhan & Chris speak with Dr.Kristin “Rosie” Barnes, Director of Medical Operations for the No Fallen Heroes Foundation, and Lauren Feringa, Director of Hippie and a Venteran Foundation, about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
