Hastings Police Chief Jeff Pratt reminds Hastings residents that Green Street will be closed from Broadway to Cass Street from  5 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Halloween, Oct. 31 for the annual trick or treating event for Hastings kids. The police department will set up a tent at the intersection of Green Street and Broadway and again hand out hot chocolate and candy.

Also, starting Nov. 1, parking on city streets will be prohibited from 2 a.m. to 6 a.m. to allow for snow plowing of the streets, Pratt said. He said officers will issue courtesy citations for the first week or so.

Hastings residents are invited to the next Coffee with the Chief on Wednesday, Nov. 1 from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. in the upstairs conference room in the Hastings Public Library. “This is a great forum to listen to suggestions and make Hastings a better place to live, work and play,” he said.
