City leaders say the idea reflects how important officers are in maintaining order and providing assistance, especially during busy times of year when residents and visitors fill the area. By adding the blue line, the community hopes to highlight its support and recognition of law enforcement.
Other towns are considering similar initiatives, with the aim of promoting awareness and showing appreciation for the role of public safety workers. While small in appearance, the blue line carries a strong message: a reminder of the connection between local communities and those who serve them.
