VIP Pizza was the victim of a break-in and vandalism. The small local business that has always helped the community in big ways needs some love and support. Couple of things taking place, 1) please reach out and provide some business to VIP Pizza, 2) If you can, please join with many people in providing a contribution to the Go Fund Me: https://gofund.me/6f12616e Thank you!

It was great to come together with my fellow Council members and work to establish primary goals for the City of Tulare. Working together with the City Manager and key department leaders puts everyone on the same page. There are many needs that require answers now and we are addressing that Tulare Strong! Thank you to Tulare Fire Department for the pictures.
