Concerned about crime, flooding or taxes in Alexandria? There’s a public meeting this Saturday that could answer some of your most burning questions.

The Alexandria City Council will answer public questions in a town hall meeting on Saturday morning at Charles Houston Recreation Center (901 Wythe Street). The meeting is the second of its kind, after kicking off in September.

Attendees are asked to submit questions in advance online, or on question cards at the event. There is no monthly schedule for the town hall meetings at this time, and Council expects to host several throughout next year, according to sources.

The meeting is scheduled to last from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.
