SUMMARY: In a recent interview, Ocean Springs Mayor Kenny Holloway discussed ongoing developments in the city, particularly the critical Front Beach area. Currently, a sidewalk project is nearing completion after storm damage a few years ago.

Following recent annexation, the city is working to provide essential services like public safety and waste management.

SUMMARY: This weekend, community members are invited to join “Picking Up the Point,” an event in south Mississippi organized by Steve Gun, who previously led a similar effort 14 years ago to teach his son about civic responsibility. Volunteers will clean areas along the beach that Harrison County‘s maintenance teams can’t access, particularly along the seawall and the north side of Highway 90. The cleanup will start at 8:30 AM at the Street Pier, with provided trash bags, gloves, and refreshments. Gun emphasizes the importance of maintaining the area’s natural beauty and protecting local wildlife from litter.
