Jackson City Councilman concerned about new parking meters
SUMMARY: Jackson City Councilman Kenneth Stokes expressed concerns about the city’s new parking kiosks and their impact on citizens. He noted that many are unaware of how to use these meters, leading to fines, and suggested a 90-day grace period to educate the public. Additionally, Stokes mentioned that some of the new meters are not functioning and the old meters haven’t been removed yet. He also advocated for a contract for Jackson Police Chief Joseph Wade, believing it would enable better law enforcement and collaboration. Stokes plans to address these issues at the upcoming city council meeting.

U.S. 84 east in Jones County has seen nearly a dozen accidents in past two weeks
SUMMARY: Jones County law enforcement reports an uptick in vehicle crashes along Highway 84, with Mississippi Highway Patrol responding to 11 incidents in the last two weeks. Many crashes result from driver distractions, like cell phone use and speeding over the 65 mph limit. Fire departments often arrive first at accident scenes, noting that high-impact collisions usually indicate excessive speed as a factor. Recent crashes have led to severe injuries, prompting lane closures and increased pressure on emergency responders, who are currently operating at reduced manpower. Authorities urge drivers to minimize distractions and adhere to speed limits for safety.
