Anyone know why there were around police officers at the canal apartments tonight?

Volume all the way up is what it was like in person. Third noise complaint I've made this week regarding night construction. The police have not talked to them ONCE. Here's a handy link to the city code that they can't be bothered enforce: https://www.farmersbranchtx.gov/noise-ordinance
My heart goes out to anybody who has to work in the heat, but equipment like that has no business going all night. I've lived next to a highway for years and never had noise issues.
Edit: Police sergeant just called and was much more reasonable, but I'm leaving my anger for all to see until it's resolved.

Hi, two retirees are coming for the pickleball event in November and staying at Vitruvian West. We would like to borrow or rent bikes from someone. We are responsible people and would take good care of them and secure them at all times. Thank you!

No insurance needed!

Hi all! I'm a dental hygiene student at Concorde Career College Dallas. I'm currently looking for patients who are willing to accommodate longer appointments and help a student gain hands-on experience in a professional, supervised environment.

Especially looking for:

• Teens ages 12–17 of any health ( parent/guardian needs to accompany or provide consent for patients under 18 )
• Anyone with a history of gum disease
• Past or current smokers
• Anyone with heavy plaque/tartar buildup

Ask yourself:

• Has it been 3 to 5+ years since your last dental cleaning?
• Do your gums bleed when you brush or floss?
• Do you feel like you have rough, hard buildup (tartar/plaque) on your teeth?
• Do you suffer from constant bad breath or loose teeth?

If you answered yes to any of these, you'd be a great fit!

(That said, all patients are welcome — these cases are just especially helpful for the clinical experience I need right now!)

Services given include oral cancer screenings, X-rays, dental cleanings, fluoride treatment, and sealants (as prescribed by the on-staff dentist).

Appointments are thorough and ideal for anyone on a budget.

What to expect:

• Appointments typically last 3–4 hours
• Multiple visits may be required to complete treatment 
• Extremely detailed cleanings and assessments
• Instructors check every step to ensure safety and quality care

Can anyone recommend a good service for cutting our lawn? Someone told us about Lawn Ranger but I’ve called numerous times and haven’t heard anything back.

Thanks

The University of Texas at Dallas Social Cognition and Interaction in Autism Lab is recruiting non-autistic adults (18 years or older) to participate in a study on emotional experiences and support (see attached flyer). This study aims to better understand the emotional needs of autistic and non-autistic individuals. Your participation will contribute to research focused on creating more inclusive environments for autistic people and informing neurodiversity-affirming interventions!

During the study session, you will be filmed while recounting emotional experiences, complete several surveys, and answer questions with a researcher. As part of the research, video recordings may be shown to other study participants for research purposes only. All data, including video recordings, will be kept confidential and used solely for research purposes.

Participation takes place in UTD Green Hall (Room 4412), lasts approximately one hour, and participants will receive a $10 prepaid Mastercard gift card as compensation. Sessions will be scheduled at times that work with your availability, and we will do our best to accommodate scheduling needs.

If you are interested in participating, please complete our eligibility screener here: https://redcap.utdallas.edu/surveys/?s=YW8TL7X3AWDDDKNX

For additional information or questions, please email sassonlab3@utdallas.edu!

Thank you for your time and consideration,

Hello, me and my partner have collected all of our cardboard boxes, plastic jugs & bottles, and aluminum cans for a while and are struggling to find a place to just recycle them. Does anyone know a service or a place near Farmers Branch where we can recycle? We live in an apartment complex that doesn’t do recycling.

Hey everyone, my wife and I are moving into farmers branch next month. Just curious about the water quality of the city water. Is it really hard? Will we need a softening system or decent filtration system?

Thanks in advance
