Local Notes

In case you missed the Shortcuts yesterday, Judge Mary Ann Gunn’s new national TV show starts Monday, the Arkansas lottery director resigned yesterday, Mayor Jordan formed a parking deck committee, and the Washington County Sheriff’s office says a local woman set her boyfriend on fire. (Shortcuts)

The Fayetteville School Board election is today. If you’re looking to do some last-minute candidate studying, last week’s candidate forum with incumbent Steve Percival and challenger James McGinty is streaming online. (FPS)

Tonight’s City Council meeting will revisit the issue of new ward boundaries in Fayetteville. We made some maps of the proposed new lines, if you’re interested. (Fayetteville Flyer)

Happy Birthday!

Locals: Kori Bartholomew, Patricia Weppler, Larry Petton, Dory Ford Sibley and Toni Luetjen.

Tuesday To-do

There are plenty of options for Tuesday night fun tonight in Fayetteville.

Psycho-surf rockers Daikaiju return to Fayetteville tonight at Smoke & Barrel Tavern. Ohio’s Ampline opens the show.

If you missed Chicken Little when they were here in March, tonight’s your chance to make up for it. The Nashville-based folk-punk band is at JR’s Lightbulb Club for a free (21+) show.
