It has been discovered a small amount of absentee ballots were mailed with the primary instructions. If you feel that these instructions caused you to vote differently, please call City Hall and you can spoil your recent ballot and we can offer you a new one. We are so sorry for the mix-up. The City will be trying to personally call the voters who were affected.
The three baseball/softball infields at Doc Letchfield park are set to start reconstruction on Thursday, September 22nd by Servinski Sod. The public need to stay off the diamonds while they are working on them and not use them until October 3, 2022. Please be patient during these couple of weeks. This is going to be a big improvement and we want to make sure the fields settle nicely before we start using them again.

As a prospective homeowner, nothing could be more important than the safety of you and your family when choosing a home. Our data science team carefully curates data from several official sources to provide an accurate representation of a city’s crime and safety. We create a ranking of cities at both the national level, and the state level, in order to help you choose your new home.
Data is gathered from several official sources, including the FBI National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). The crime and safety score for each city below incorporates a weighted list of offenses, based on the severity of the crime. For example, a crime like rape or manslaughter would be rated heavier (more severe) than petty theft or fraud. The numbers are also normalized by the city’s population, so the dynamic of crime in a larger city vs. a smaller city is also taken into account. These raw safety scores are then ranked both nationally and by state to arrive at a ranking for all the cities in the United States.

The youth baseball/softball fields located at the city park, are community fields used by all who surround the City of Pinconning. The Pinconning Youth League Organization represent the whole community of Pinconning including city and township rural areas that are part of the Pinconning community, so we are all participant users of these playing fields and any donations from private/personal, business organization and clubs in our Pinconning area are welcome and would be greatly appreciated for our children.
The first project is all three playing fields are being updated with infield improvements which will regrade and rebuild the infields with newly applied diamond dust at all three diamonds. The last infield improvements were performed in the early 2000’s. This work is scheduled to be completed by the Oct. 1, 2022 and the improvement cost was funded by grants received from the Northern Bay County Fund, the Youth Advisory Endowment Fund administered by the Bay Area Foundation, and the City of Pinconning DDA.
The second project is the “Light Up the Field Project”, with an estimated cost of $40,000.00, to update the field lights of the west diamond. The existing old light fixtures were last updated in the 1980s and approximately a third to half of them do not work. The project would replace existing halogen fixtures with new & high efficient LED fixtures and will light up the field for many years to come. With these lighting improvements, more youth league seasonal and tournament play would be scheduled to utilize the field more and would also attract travel ball team tournaments to the City of Pinconning to be scheduled during the summer season, which also benefits our community. Funding for this project is in progress and is currently supported by two grants received by the Northern Bay County Fund and the Men’s Philanthropy Group administered by the Bay Area Foundation in the amount of $5,500. There have been several business commitments also to support this project to date which still leaves a fund-raising goal of $30,000+ approximately.
The Pinconning Youth League Organization is an affiliate of the Tri-Village Association which is a 501-C-3 Non-Profit organization, and any donation would be tax deductible.
