Good morning, Escondido.

Local veterans groups, elected officials and community members gathered at Oak Hill Memorial Park on Memorial Day to honor fallen service members — a Missing Man Table symbolized those still unaccounted for — as red and white flowers and wreaths were placed on graves.

Escondido City Council backed a new downtown business improvement district in a unanimous vote on May 13, authorizing a petition for a district covering 26 square blocks.

A public hearing is expected in late June or early July as property owners decide if the plan will improve local services.
