I am pleased to present the second quarter operational and financial report for FY 2019. Included in this report are capital project updates, some concerning trends in recycling and financial updates covering the first half of the fiscal year.

As we close out another calendar year and reflect on the accomplishments and challenges, I am proud of the progress we continue to make. At the same time, it is clear that all progress is incremental and lasting change requires continuous adjustment. 

We live in times of technological, social and political uncertainty, as everyone who even glances at the news headlines is aware. Through this uncertainly, working together, this organization and community will continue to adapt and thrive.

Our next quarterly meeting will be Council’s annual retreat on February 22–23 where we will have the opportunity to withdraw from the daily routine and focus on the bigger picture, stretch our paradigms with different perspectives and have the time and space to strengthen relationships. I look forward to spending that time with you.

In Keeping Cary Great,

Sean R. Stegall
Town Manager
