Good morning, Columbia.

Columbia Farmers Market will resume its summer Wednesday market May 27, running weekly from 4 to 7 p.m. through Aug.

26 at its usual location. The market features nearly 30 local vendors — selling fresh produce, meat, eggs, honey and more, with live music and matching food assistance programs.

Local restaurant Ozark Mountain Biscuit and Bar has updated its menu with new drinks (Pistachi-Old-Fashi, The Secret Garden, Southern Señorita, CoMo-politan, Coasted Toconut) and entrees like Fried Chicken Dinner, Tri-Tip Steak, and Smothered Tenderloin Plate, shared on its Instagram ahead of summer.

The University of Missouri Board of Curators will vote today on a 4% tuition increase for undergraduates across four campuses (Columbia's rate would rise by $19.11 per credit hour, with a nearly $287 surge in the average semester cost) set to take effect in fall.

Columbia Public Schools seniors will graduate this weekend, and ceremonies will include reading the names of three deceased students after community advocacy prompted the change.

The district said no policy prevents the practice, and names will be read before the moment of silence (honoring students’ memories).

The University of Missouri has installed an experimental radar outside Columbia to fill gaps in low-level storm data missed by distant National Weather Service radars, and forecasters say the extra data will help verify storm rotations + track precipitation changes.

Eligible Boone County seniors can apply for the property tax relief program until 5 p.m. on June 30 in person or by mail at the county center + notary services are available from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday to verify applications.

Go COMO will return to its six fixed routes after nearly three years of compressed service.

Starting May 26, buses will run on 45-minute cycles from 6:25 a.m. to 6:40 p.m. on weekdays while Saturday service will be reduced with three buses starting at 10 a.m.

Columbia announced weekly recycling pickups will resume on June 15 after improved staffing at its Solid Waste Utility.
