Phones at City Hall and IBTS (City Services) are currently down and we apologize for the inconvenience. We are working to correct the issue.

Mayor Wade Evans has declared March Flood Awareness Month in the City of Central. Learn how to prepare for a flood, stay safe during a flood, and protect your health when you return home after a flood. Know what to do if there is a flood watch or warning in your area. Floods, big or small, can have devastating effects on your home and your family.

Here's your reminder! The prayer meeting is tomorrow!
