Public Safety and Community Advisories
Shelby County Mayor Lee Harris will host a community update today at 1:30 p.m. regarding fairness and accountability within county operations. This advisory follows recent leadership changes and the resignation of former officials. Residents are encouraged to monitor official county channels for live-stream information.
Recovery efforts from the recent severe winter storm continue throughout the city. While Memphis-Shelby County Schools (MSCS) have resumed regular operations as of Monday, February 9, city officials continue to monitor neighborhood road conditions. Public Works crews are operating under a priority-based mitigation plan, focusing on primary emergency routes. Residents are advised that while many major roads have been treated, shaded neighborhood streets and alleys may still contain lingering ice and debris.
Service and Infrastructure Notifications
The City of Memphis Solid Waste Division has resumed residential garbage and recycling collection following the winter weather disruption. However, crews are currently operating on an extended recovery schedule to clear the backlog of Monday and Tuesday routes. Residents who missed service last week are asked to leave their carts at the curb until collection is completed. The City’s third-party contractor, Team Waste, is following the same recovery timeline.
Health and Education Notices
The University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UTHSC) has issued a public notice regarding proposed tuition and mandatory fee increases. The UT Board of Trustees is scheduled to consider these changes during their meeting in Memphis on February 26–27. A 15-day public comment period is currently open and will conclude on February 23. Furthermore, the Shelby County Health Department continues to offer free Hepatitis A vaccinations at various public health clinics, including the headquarters at 814 Jefferson Avenue, for individuals identified in high-risk groups.
