Welcome to Fall River Now. Here's your look at the week ahead in Fall River city government.

First up, the Conservation Commission meets tonight, Monday, August third, at five-thirty p.m. The commission has a full agenda, with many items carried over from its July meeting.

A major proposal from McAllister Towing and Transportation is up for review. The company wants to repair and replace a sheet pile bulkhead, dredge parts of the terminal's basin, and make other site improvements at its property on Shaw Street.

Commissioners will also hear plans from Liberty Utilities to install a new gas main carrier pipe on Jefferson Street. National Grid is also seeking approval for work within its existing overhead transmission line right-of-way.

Also on the agenda is a plan for after-the-fact restoration of areas cleared of vegetation at the Weaver's Cove Industrial Park. The board is also scheduled to discuss adopting a new fee structure and will review outstanding enforcement orders.

Later in the week, the Board of Park Commissioners meets Wednesday evening at five-thirty. The board will consider the city's request to hold its annual Public Safety Palooza event at Maplewood Park on Tuesday, August eleventh. The event is intended to bring residents and public safety officials together.

Also on the agenda is a request from Director of Veterans' Services Talos Farris to use Bicentennial Park for the official Purple Hart Day observance and a memorial homecoming for PFC Manual Pacheco.

Several youth and school soccer organizations are seeking permits to use Britland Park for their upcoming fall seasons. Commissioners will also review requests for a community bike ride on the Quequechan Rail Trail, a basketball challenge hosted by the MA Coalition of Police, and a fall yoga series.

Finally, the board will consider a request to install a memorial bench at Bicentennial Park and another from the city to remove five trees on Mount Hope Street and at Ridge and Conant Streets.
