**Community Connection: The Latest on the 16th Street Bridge Closure and More**

Get ready for a lively discussion on this episode of Community Connection! The conversation starts with a personal update from the host, Tina Cosby, about her weekend and a special family celebration. But don’t worry, it’s not all about the personal stuff – the discussion quickly turns to the big news of the day: the 16th Street Bridge closure. The city says the project will extend the life of the historic arch bridge by fixing broken concrete, but some are worried about the impact on traffic and the city’s budget.

The conversation also touches on the upcoming City County Council meeting, where a proposal to raise taxes to fund road repairs will be discussed. The mayor is opposed to the idea, but some council members think it’s necessary to get the city’s roads in better shape. The discussion gets heated, with some callers sharing their thoughts on the issue. Meanwhile, Tina and producer Eric also talk about the upcoming National Donut Day and shares some interesting facts about the history of donuts.

But it’s not all serious talk – the conversation also gets a little lighter with a discussion about the Indiana Fever and their recent game against the Atlanta Dream. Tina talks to B Swift from our sister station Hot 100.9 FM who is the announcer for all home games of the Indiana Fever and Indian Pacers, shares his thoughts on the team’s performance and the role of star player Caitlin Clark.
